Final Thoughts about the Eriijukiro Museum
Those are the things that stood out most for me.
Still, there were many other things that I enjoyed learning there too.
I enjoyed learning about the local people’s ideals of beauty (more relevant to me and my body type than any I have ever encountered before), about the money used in the region from as far back as when money began to be used to the present day, and learning about the many varieties of banana plants grown in the region along with their various uses.
I have visited the museum with both locals and non-Ugandans.
Both groups of people have found the museum very interesting.
If you’ve never been and happen to be around Mbarara, I greatly encourage you to pay the museum a visit.
Done with the museum, I made a quick stop at the Eitaramiro Cultural Village.
This section of the centre features models of traditional housing from the region.
Then, it was time for lunch at Kaahwa Kanuzire.
Kaahwa Kanuzire
Kaahwa Kanuzire has been called by some “the best restaurant in Mbarara and its vicinity”.
Although I cannot attest to this because I do not know Mbarara restaurants well enough, it is one of my preferred places to have a meal when I am around Mbarara.
What Is So Great about Kaahwa Kanuzire?
The food as well as the service is always good, and the view of the manicured gardens is delightful!
What Kind of Food Can You Expect to Find on the Igongo Cultural Centre Menu?
I usually order typical Ugandan fare when I’m there, but they also serve international dishes.
So…if you have not visited Igongo Cultural Centre but will be in or around Mbarara some time soon, I encourage you to visit.
A trip to the museum is a wonderful way to learn about the culture and history of the region’s people. If museums are not your thing, then it’s also a wonderful place to just chillax and grab a bite.
Have you ever been to Igongo Cultural Centre? If so, what did you think?
As always, I’d love to hear what you have to say.
Until the next time,
