Makola African Market is a long-standing and authentic African marketplace located on the north side of Aurora. This market offers a wide variety of Ghanaian and African products, including traditional foods, snacks, beverages, medicines, and jewelry.

So glad I found this shop (next to a Buddhist temple). I've stopped by twice and easily found several of the food items my family loves. They have some parking in the front of the shop which makes things a little easier to navigate in the area.
