Uganda has a very strong cultural heritage. Most of the regions in Ugandahave kingdoms including Buganda, Busoga, Bunyoro and Toro. Ugandans are remarkably hospitable from a diversity of rich cultures and life styles. Each tribe has it’s own traditional dance. The banyankole perform their Kitagururo dance, the Banyoro have their Runyege, Acholi have the Bwora and Otole dances. The Alur people from the West Nile have the traditional Agwal dance, Bagisu have the Imbalu dance during circumcission ceremonies. All of these dances have their symbolism in accordance with a particular kingdom or a tribe.
In Uganda, Culture and traditions are also expressed through a wide range of arts and Crafts made from wood, Papyrus reeds and local materials. These include blackcloths, jewellery made out of reeds, wood carvings to make tables and mats designed in different colours. They can be found in some parts of the country especially in tourism destinations like in national parks from the western part of the country, at the museum, gift shops, hotels, Urban galleries and the National Theatre Craft. The Drum being the common instrument in Africa, also dominates Uganda in symbolism to African cultures. All these are very attractive to be seen and how they are being made.
