Tamale Central, Tamale · Northern
The north's biggest market, a swirl of yams, guinea fowl, smocks, shea products and northern street food.
The local tip
Go early for the yam and guinea-fowl sections, and try the northern snacks like koko and tubani at the food stalls.
Check before leaving
Confirm trading hours during Ramadan and local festivals, which shift the daily rhythm.
