Lake Victoria
Lake Victoria spans Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania, with a vast surface like an inland sea. Standing on the shore in Entebbe, you can barely see the opposite side. This body of water is also the source lake of the Nile. The water flows out from the Jinja area in Uganda and heads north, forming the upper reaches of the Nile. The lake is rich in fish and water birds. The Ugandan side of the lake is adjacent to the capital, Kampala, and Entebbe is the main gateway for tours of the lake region. Taking a boat tour of the lake is an iconic experience here. The lake is calm in the early morning, perfect for birdwatching, and at dusk, the sunset dyes the water golden red as fishing boats return in groups. Boat tours departing from Entebbe also pass by the equator marker on the lake, a ritual of crossing between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres that draws many visitors.Entebbe · 92.8 km from Jinja
Tombs of Buganda Kings at Kasubi
The Tomb of Subi, also known as the Tomb of the Buganda Kingdom, is a world cultural heritage. It is said to be the largest thatched mausoleum in Africa, built in the same way as the traditional reed bark houses of the local Buganda people. In 2001, the original thatched mausoleum was destroyed by an inexplicable fire, and now tourists can only watch around the surrounding auxiliary buildings during the visit. It is far from the city, and you need to take a motorcycle to get there.Kampala · 73.4 km from Jinja

It is the tomb of a famous local figure. It is built very simply, but it is indeed extraordinary.

There are monuments and scientific demonstrations (such as the direction of water flow) to illustrate the characteristics of the Earth.
