For the Ga tribe in coastal Ghana, funerals are a time of mourning, but also of celebration.
They honor their dead with brightly colored coffins that celebrate the way they lived.
They might also symbolize a vice – such as a bottle of beer or a cigarette.
It’s a huge industry in Accra and expensive.
A coffin can cost $400 dollars, which is equivalent to one year’s salary.
Ghanas relatively new tradition of Fantasy Coffin has now become a tourist attraction for the country.
