Uganda as a country has a complex history, with people living in a society that has a strong legacy of the colonial times of Britain. In fact, the culture is much mixed with traditional ideas associated with tribes and different areas of the country and more modern influences that are particularly prominent in the bigger cities.
The traditions of different tribes are much evident when one travels around Uganda, not least evident in the tribal languages that the tribes speak. The Eastern side of the country has its unique characteristics. This summer I has a chance to explore the local culture of the Bududa District whilst in Uganda. The modern and cheerful yet grounded and wise outlook on life that people of this region possess has remained with me. Hence, I would like to share more information about the district with you and hope that you can go and visit it yourself one day:
