Walking through the compound that houses the Kasubi Tombs, the main path leads to what should be an entrance. But it ends at one of the layers of thatch covering the 25-foot structure known as Muzibu Azala Mpanga. It looks like a giant basket turned upside down. If it weren’t for the rows of shoes laid neatly outside, you’d never know there was a way in. cnn.it/3QeESJn








Kasubi Tombs: A UNESCO World Heritage Site This is a royal burial ground where Kabaka (the kings of Buganda) are buried in the Muzibu Azaala Mpanga building. Four of them rest here, including the founding father of modern Uganda, Kabaka Mutesa I. When fire reduced Muzibu Azaala Mpanga to ash in 2010, it wasn't just a UNESCO site we lost but our spiritual portal—the sacred forest where our departed kings continue to speak to the living through spirit mediums. The tombs were rebuilt the way our ancestors built, and now they're open again. Why visit? Nowhere else will you see a 25-foot dome woven entirely from reeds, spear grass, and bark cloth and no modern materials (world’s biggest grass-thatched house). You will feel the cool stillness beneath the thatch, and stand before the bark cloth curtain where Kabaka never truly die. #ExploreUganda |#KasubiTombs
