Description: The Volta River separated Gonja from Asante, and the king of Asante in precolonial times declared Salaga as the final stop for northern traders. A ferry service now connects eastern Gonja on the northern shore of the Volta at Makango with Yeji on the southern shore of the Volta and Asante.
