What you’ll find

What Adanwomase is known for

Adanwomase, a royal weaving town about 27 kilometers northeast of Kumasi, still keeps centuries-old Sesea kente swatches in the Kente Chief's residence. The village's own site catalogs more than a thousand loom patterns and ships handwoven cloth directly to buyers by DHL.
