The map
Bawku lies in Ghana's Upper East Region, close to the borders with Burkina Faso and Togo. That position has made it a trading town for a long time, with goods and people crossing between the three countries. The land around it is open savanna, flat or gently rolling, and the map shows a town with a clear centre and roads leading out in several directions.
The central area is compact, organised around the market and main roads. Further out, the settlement becomes looser, with compounds and farms scattered in the savanna and paths between them. The main routes stand out on the map because they are what link Bawku to Bolgatanga and to the border crossings nearby.
A Bawku map poster reflects that kind of crossroads. The lines converge on the centre and then spread out into open ground. With few water features and little elevation change, the drawing comes down to roads and settlement. In Sand, it takes on a warm tone suited to the northern Ghanaian landscape.
The densest streets gather around the town's central market area, where the main roads meet.
Routes run from Bawku toward Burkina Faso, Togo and the rest of Ghana, making the town a junction on the map.
Beyond the centre, the settlement spreads into scattered compounds and farmland across flat, open country.
