Uganda, often referred to as the “Pearl of Africa,” is a landlocked country located in East Africa. Its geographical location places it within the African Great Lakes region, bordered by Kenya to the east, South Sudan to the north, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, Rwanda to the southwest, and Tanzania to the south.
The climate in Uganda is predominantly tropical, with variations in temperature and rainfall across different regions. Generally, the country experiences two main seasons: a rainy season from March to May and October to November, and a dry season from December to February and June to August. However, due to its diverse geography, microclimates exist within the country, ranging from tropical rainforests in the west to semi-arid regions in the northeast.
