Bonwire Kente Village

Bonwire, Kumasi · Ashanti

The historic home of kente weaving, with workshops, a small museum and strips of cloth sold straight off the loom.

The local tip

Ask the price of the cloth by the strip and by the full cloth; quality and weave density vary hugely between workshops.

Check before leaving

Confirm the weaving museum is open and whether a demonstration is running.
