We give our visitors opportunities to tour also and see attractive things we have in Uganda like. The source of Rive Nile ‘‘World’s Longest River” The River Nile is about 6,670 km (4,160 miles) in length and is the longest river in Africa and in the world which is draining into the Mediterranean Sea. The source of all this tumult is marked by a modest sign that reads “The Source of R. Nile - Jinja - World’s Longest River” at Ripon Falls in Lake Victoria, Africa's biggest lake also. On the northern edge of the lake, water pours over a waterfall, into a narrow opening which is the beginning of River Nile.

The Pavilion (Island) in the lake is another unique feature at Namugongo with a clear view that can be seen from all angles of the over 15 acres Shrine compound.

3. We have the Equator

The Equator also passes through Uganda. The climate, too, is highly agreeable, reflecting the combination of an equatorial location and medium to high altitudes. Uganda's equatorial climate provides plentiful sunshine, moderated by the relatively high altitude of most areas of the country. Mean annual temperatures range from about 16° C in the southwestern highlands to 25° C in the northwest; but in the northeast, temperatures exceed 30° C about 254 days per year. Daytime temperatures average about eight to ten degrees warmer than nighttime temperatures in the Lake Victoria region, and temperatures are generally about fourteen degrees lower in the southwest.  Except in the northeastern corner of the country, rainfall is well distributed. The southern region has two rainy seasons, usually beginning in early April and again in October. Little rain falls in June and December. In the north, occasional rains occur between April and October, while the period from November to March is often very dry.

4. We have the Uganda Zoo

Uganda is rich in wildlife and natural resources. The pearl of Africa has beautiful and diverse habitat for animals in Zoo and national parks. The Western part is an ideal location for tracking the rare Mountain Gorilla’s and the very much humanlike chimpanzees. Seeing zebra’s, giraffe, hippo’s and many other wild animals but it is definitely also the best place in the world to go and see primates in the wild and go Gorilla tracking. If you come to Uganda we will arrange you on other costs the right safari if you should wish to do so.  Like Queen Elizabeth National Park where Lions, Leopards, Elephants, Hippos and many more animals can be found and We give our visitors a tight security
