  • Kasubi Tombs
    The Kasubi Tombs are a UNESCO World Heritage site and the burial place of four Buganda kings (Kabakas). The rich history and cultural significance make it a unique place to visit on your Kampala city tour. The Tombs of Buganda Kings at Kasubi constitute a site embracing almost 30 hectares of hillside within Kampala district. Most of the site is agricultural, farmed by traditional methods. At its core on the hilltop is the former palace of the Kabakas of Buganda, built in 1882 and converted into the royal burial ground in 1884. Four royal tombs now lie within the Muzibu Azaala Mpanga, the main building, which is circular and surmounted by a dome. It is a major example of an architectural achievement in organic materials, principally wood, thatch, reed, wattle and daub. The site's main significance lies, however, in its intangible values of belief, spirituality, continuity and identity.
  • Kabaka's Palace
    Kabaka's Palace (Lubiri or Mengo Palace) is the royal compound of the Kabaka of Buganda, located in Mengo, a suburb of Kampala, the Ugandan capital. Built in 1885, Kabaka's Palace (Lubiri) is the historic official residence of the Buganda king. Following a 1966 military coup, the palace’s subterranean storage tunnels were used to incarcerate political prisoners. Although the palace’s classic facade has been restored, chilling reminders of the Idi Amin dictatorship remain in the grounds. However, the palace is located on top of Mengo hill which gives spectacular view of the city and other beautiful selling point inside and outside the gate that you will enjoy on your visit.
