Circle Trotro Station


Kwame Nkrumah Circle - TroTro Station - Main Accra's landmark - You can get a 
 trotro from anywhere to Circle, just have to concentrate on "cir,cir,cir..." and look at the hands or the fingers turning on themselves!! The horizon of roofs there is the hundreds of little shops on the side of the station where you can find anything at anytime of the day, made my passport photos there for my residency permit, from a little boy who had an old digital camera, an old computer with Microsoft Publisher..Believe it or not, the photos were ready in 2minutes (like a photomaton) and looked very professional! 
But sadly these hundreds shops make a little slum next to the station (typical environment around trotro station). The shops never close, the sellers are there, sleeping in their tiny stalls, in the middle of the rubbish accumulated for days and months before being thrown in the river, couple of meters away, which will then fill the Atlantic Ocean with thousands of plastic bags which you see in the waves of the beach, couple of kilometers from Accra, Kokrobite, see next message...
