Nature lovers rejoice as Uganda belongs to the Great Lakes region of East Africa, along with Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. As such, the top attraction in Kampala is Lake Victoria, one of the world’s largest freshwater lakes with a coastline of 3.2km and an area of 68.8 square km.

If you’re looking for a relaxation retreat, visit the Kalangala Island or the Bulago Island to enjoy natural tropical forests and sandy beaches where you can sunbathe and swim all day. At Lake Victoria you can also enjoy bird watching, scenic walks and go on safari.

The Kasubi tombs, the remains of the Kings of Buganda, offer a snapshot of Ugandan tribal history. Although they were extensively damaged by fire in March 2010, they narrate the story of the Buganda Kingdom. In Kampala city centre, the Uganda Museum displays the Uganda’s cultural heritage with its ethnological, historical and traditional exhibits. The Nommo art gallery, the National Theatre and many of Kampala’s numerous cathedrals are also worth sightseeing in the city.

Love open markets? Visit the Owino Market, the busiest market in the city, where you can find everything under the sun. Other popular markets in Kampala are the Nakasero market for fruits and vegetables, the craft market on Buganda Road near the Garden City complex, and the art market behind the National Theatre.
