Savelugu is an important town in the Northern Province of Ghana, located in the country's northern savannah belt, about 440 kilometers north of the capital city of Accra. As the capital of the Savelugu District, it is one of the agricultural and commercial centers of northern Ghana, and the surrounding area is known for its abundance of crops such as maize, millet, and groundnuts, as well as its vibrant local markets, which serve as a distribution point for agricultural products from the surrounding area. The region mostly has a savannah climate with distinct dry and rainy seasons, and is inhabited by the predominantly Dagomba ethnic group, which retains its traditional tribal culture and handicraft traditions. In recent years, with improved infrastructure, Savelugu has emerged as an important node connecting the rural north to the regional economic hub, and is one of the featured destinations for exploring the folklore of northern Ghana.
