Kampala,
the
capital
city of
Uganda,
is the
largest
urban
settlement
in
Uganda.
It lies
on a
plateau,
spread
over
more
than
twenty
rolling
hills.
With an
altitude
of 1180m
above
sea
level,
Kampala
has a
pleasant
weather,
with
annual
temperatures
averaging
17
degrees
(minimum)
and 21
degrees
(maximum)
Celsius.
It has a
population
of 1.5
million
people.
The origins of the Kampala city go back to 1891 the when Kabaka of Buganda had his court on Rubaga and Mengo hills. Recorded history has a much shorter tradition, and a documentary evidence of Uganda's past goes only 150 years. However, oral traditions are also important to us, and from these we learn stories of several hundred years ago.
