Did You Know?
Lomé sits directly on the frontier with Ghana — the border runs along the western edge of the city — making it one of the very few national capitals placed on an international boundary.
The clock: Lomé keeps UTC+0, the same as Accra 180 km west, so the border here changes the currency and the language but not the hour.
