Kololo

While Kololo isn't home to many top sights, Uganda Golf Course and The Acacia Mall are some notable places to visit nearby.

The hotel may not have been the best, but the structure of its floors was fascinating. So was the food. After all, this is where I fell for the Ugandan pineapples! I adored the swimming pool and the view over Kampala, beautiful both at sunset and at sunrise! #waterlust P.S.
