Unfortunately the museum is very run down, a lot of pieces missing, stuffed animals that look like puppets. It was still interesting going through though. The thing that disappointed me the most was that some of the traditional huts were closed without a reason being given.

This is a best place to visit in Uganda. If you haven't gone to this place, you may not know life in its fullest.

The Uganda museum houses Uganda's rich history. However, the buildings need urgent attention in terms of renovation. The important relics and many other historical items are being exposed to the weather hazards. Which could lead to their damage and the loss of Uganda's beautiful and rich history.
