The Labyrinth Living Quarters Of Tengzug Before The Big Festival - Northern Ghana

This was bizarre! We arrived at the secluded village of Tengzug, which is made made of interconnected living quarters and shrines, right before their big yearly festival. Most men had to be shirtless and we weren't allowed to visit the shrines because you're only supposed to enter there in the nude. So these areas were off limits, even though on regular, non festive days, you can enter as a visitors.

The first scene, we walked into, was a freshly slaughtered goat ... we're not going to post that video footage but giving sacrifices for the festival are a huge deal. It w as really a shame that we didn't schedule our visit to Tengzug a week later to see all the celebrations. But we loved meeting the Chief of Tengzug, right before we left.

We're going to write about the town of Tengzug soon on our Ghana Travel Blog.
