Kabakas Palace
The palace was constructed in 1885 by Ssekabaka Mwanga11. This was when he took over the
dominion in 1884 at age of 18 years old. It is a rule in Buganda Kingdom for the new king to choose a hill where to build his palace, so Mwanga 11 constructed his first palace at Masaja and after some time he thought of shifting his palace away from Masaja. He had always appreciated Emmengo which was also by then called Nkaawo hill where members of the Nvubu clan stored their grinding stones for herbal medicine. So the king decided to construct his palace at Nkaawo hill (Emmengo)
and the name Mengo was adopted. Today the palace became Mengo Palace and the hill became Mengo hill. The king was much scared when the palace caught fire after the construction was completed and this fire destroyed the all important documents for the Kingdom, itscared the king and he escaped away to Nalukolongo were he was hosted by Roman Catholic Missionaries. After some time, the king left the missionaries and went to live with Mukasa who was the Katikiiro to his father Ssekabaka Muteesa II. When he was still staying at Mukasa`s place,lightning struck and destroyed everything at Mukasa`s home in 1886. He again ran away from Mukasa`s home and went to Munyonyo where he constructed another palace at Mulungu hill nextto Lake Victoria.The prime Minister of Uganda (Milton Obote) ordered a strong attack to remove out Kabaka Mutesa 11 in 1966. It was by the commands of Idi Amin forces, they attacked angrily the palace and after many times of attacks and fighting, the King was forced to flee and live in exile in the United Kingdom‟s.The palace was completely turned into army barracks and it became a dangerous underground prison and torture chamber for Idi Amin in the 1970s. This underground torture chamber built by Idi Amin was a dark concrete tunnel with numerous darkness, damp cells which were separated by an electrified passage of water to prevent escape of prisoners, also you can see charcoal messages written by former prisoners on the walls: one reads „Obote, you have killed me, but what about my children and on the grounds are also the scrap metal remains of Mutesa‟s Rolls Royce destroyed by Idi Amin.
Kabaka's Lake
This is the largest manmade lake in Uganda located between Ring Road and Nabunya Road in
Ndeeba Rubaga Division, It is 5 km away from the Kampala City center. It was constructed between 1885 and 1888 by fifty two (52) clans of Buganda Kingdom during the regime of Ssekabaka Mwanga 11.The Kabaka (King) had planned to construct a wide channel so that he can cruise by boat to reach Lake Victoria for swimming, fishing purposes and also to enable him stay at his palace which he had constructed at
Mulungu hill in Munyonyo next to Lake Victoria, it was also to serve as an escape route in the event of armed conflict with the British. Unfortunately all of his plans were veins distorted by religious war which broke out in Buganda Kingdom on 2nd August 1888. The lake occupies an area of around 2 square kilometers and about 200 feet deep and water level is constant throughout the year yet it has no any water outlet which supplies it with water but only the underground springs since 1885, the environment surrounding this manmade lake is so beautiful with tall trees and green grasses and the two islands makes it more beautiful, walking on shores is an experience and you will also see local people and learn about their behaviors and
culture in relation to this lake, it is also home of various bird species like Great White Egrets,

market was moved to Kagugube which is currently between Sir Apollo Kagwa Road and Gaddafi Road and lastly it was
moved to its current location Nakasero hill when the temporary structure of the market was built by then.The market was divided into two areas; the first area is the open part which is temporarily coveredand this is the area where people buy fresh produces.
