It turns out Techiman does have some redeemable qualities. The other day I headed out to the nearby village of Bono Manso to see a shrine. After a somewhat interesting walk through the village to a Baobab tree where they honor their ancestors, we went to the Sacred Shrine in a nearby nature reserve.

The journey to the Shrine was wicked fun. Back in the days of tribal warfare, the religious leader was a sought after prize, so the shrine was protected by a series of really impressive rock bluffs that we had to scramble over. I always get a real kick out of climbing around, and it was great to get to the top of every big rock I could.
This place was an old lookout for an old African state--they could see enemies coming at them from over 30 miles away up here. Many of the pictures are from this lookout area.
