Kampala, Uganda: A Vibrant Capital in the Hinterland of East Africa
Kampala, the capital and largest city of Uganda, is located on the northern shore of Lake Victoria in the south-central part of the country and is an important transportation hub and economic center of East Africa. With a pleasant climate and a population of more than 3 million, this highland city at an altitude of about 1,200 meters above sea level is a blend of tradition and modernity - from historical landmarks such as the Uganda National Mosque and St. Paul's Cathedral, to bustling business districts and fast-growing industrial parks. As one of the core cities of the East African Community, Kampala's economy is based on agro-processing, manufacturing and services, with a vibrant fishing and tourism industry based on the Lake Victoria location. Its multicultural atmosphere and easy access to Entebbe International Airport make it a gateway city for exploring Uganda and the East African region.
