Kabaka's Palace, also known as Mengo Palace, in Kampala, Uganda, offers a glimpse into the history and culture of the Buganda Kingdom. A visit typically involves exploring the grounds, including the former torture chambers built by Idi Amin. Accessibility can be challenging due to uneven terrain. A guided tour is highly recommended to fully understand the historical context and significance of the palace. There are no significant seasonal restrictions, but it's advisable to check for closures due to royal events. The cost of entry is relatively low, and a typical visit lasts around 2-3 hours. Photography restrictions may apply in certain areas.
