  UGANDA, THE PEARL OF AFRICA Only a few jet hours away from any point in the world, Uganda is a tourist's paradise. Although it lies astride the equator, its high altitude ranging from 3,000 to 7,000 ft. gives it a pleasant climate throughout the year. Temperatures seldom rise above 85F (29C) or fall below 60F (15C). Uganda, with a population of 91/2 million, is rich in history and culture. Its carefully preserved wildlife in the country's three National Parks, 16 Game Reserves, 18 controlled hunting areas, its snow-capped mountains, its rich and fertile valleys, its gurgling rivers with their powerful rapids, its magnificent lakes and above all its friendly and hospitable people, has always endeared Uganda to its many thousands of visitors.  'ELEPHANTS HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY...'Uganda's biggest attraction is certainly its National Parks, which contain some of the largest concentrations of elephant, buffalo, Uganda kob and topi to be found in Africa. It also has an unsurpassed abundance of hippo, crocodile and other river life along the Nile, while in Lakes George and Edward and along the Kazinga Channel which links the two, there is probably the largest hippo population anywhere in Africa. There is also lion, leopard, cheetah, rhino, baboons, hyenax, warthogs, zebra, giraffe and antelopes of all kinds in most parts of the country. Uganda also possesses species which more rightly belong further west; the relatively small forest elephant, for example, gorillas and the amusing chimpanzee. There are also reptiTes, myriads of birds and hosts of other animals. You name it;there is a good chance that you will find it in Uganda. Two of the three national parks are only a few hours' drive away from the capital, Kampala. The biggest park, and probably the best known outside Uganda, is the Murchison Falls National Park, which covers an area of 1,500 square miles through which ftows the Victoria Nile. The Queen Elizabeth National Park, of 1,000 square miles, is situated near the Congo border, while further away, in the north-eastern tip of the country, on the Sudan border, is the unspoilt beauty of Kidepo National Park, a 500 square mile world of its own. On the roads, inside the Parks, the elephants have the right of way and the drivers of vehicles are asked to extend this courtesy through road signs posted along these roads. |
