    The National Mosque is the largest Islamic place of worship in Uganda.
    It is also called the Gaddafi Mosque because the former Libyan leader financed its construction.
    From the minaret you have a great view of Kampala

      The national mosque sits on the most central of the 7 original hills of Kampala. From the minaret you can see the other 6 hills and the roads leading from them to this central point. The first brick house in Kampala, built by the British, is also preserved within the mosque complex. The mosque is very beautiful and peaceful.
        It is the popular tourist attraction in Kampala, open 9am to 7pm.
