Its exactly behind Uganda equator photo booth line..Just near restaurant equator is there..There are three small pots where the concept of equator will be explained by the guide and if you want the certificate then the cost of it will be 10000 UGX..In the equator line the object will not rotate rather it will directly fall and in the right and left pot the object will rotate clockwise and anticlockwise..There is a good market of local items nearby..

Quite an experience standing at this location. Couldnt get any science experience done but to know that you are standing where the earth splits in two is amazing.Location is dotted with stalls selling arts and crafts from the area and various other memorabilia.However, the place could be organised better seeing the great tourism value it holds. The road should be cleaner and the two points on either side of the road properly stationed.

It was a good experience, many shops to buy some items and a good number of restaurants around there so be sure to easily find a place to grab something to eat. You can also take pictures of the equator.

Its a fancy feeling being at the center of the globe and it is a very magical experience having one leg in the Southern hemisphere, another leg in the Northern hemisphere and your head at the center with 0 latitude

This has been my best experience so far. I was literally at the center of the world. The tutor Mr. Muwonge was very good he took us through the water experiment which shows how forces act in the different hemispheres. In the south the water moves in an anticlockwise direction in the North the water moves in a clockwise direction.The place also had many craft shops for those looking for souvenirs and a nice little restaurant for those looking for a quick bite. Hygiene was also great with great customer care. Am looking forward to visiting again.

We hired a driver set up by our hotel, the drive was long from Kampala, but so worth it. The egg experiment was great, but just being at the center of the world is awesome. There is local shopping authentic African food, which I highly enjoyed.

How often does one pass by the equator? For most people, not often. Shopping here is very nice as well. Kind and pleasant shop keepers. Good prices.

As you leave Mpigi towards Masaka along Masaka-Kampala highway is one of the equator crossing points in Uganda. Though the site is not developed on purpose, it has a restaurants and crafts shop tailored around tourism. If you passby, you wont fail to see the water troughs with magical flowers rotating in different directions depending on which side of the equator one is. Personally, I couldnt help eating on either side of the spectrum and the equator restaurant serves wonderful pizza and related foods in such a cool and lovely space. It is a worthwhile stopover as one goes to make safaris in the west of Uganda.

It is where the imaginary line of equator passes through. One should go and see the place. There are few craft shops and cafes around for shopping and quick bites.

The Ugandas Best stop over along Mbarara-Kampala Highway. it is historical and a world heritage site you must visit this while you still living on earth. Nice gift shops around and souvenirs can be accessed at these amazing shopping centers at the Equator. This spot shows Uganda is most blessed country in the world

Well I came to know about this place from some random travel video I was scrolling through. Then when I googled it, a lot of photos appeared of that iconic circle.Whatever, as it was COVID period and, lockdown is still going on, I was the lone person there in a idle afternoon. The place is nothing special except that circular structure. I forgot to check my gps there but later on, I found it was showing 0 degree latitude.There’s a restaurant collocated with the circular structure ( Is structure appropriate?‘and there were none’ when I visited. The restaurant owner will offer you a visitor’s book for you to sign. And they will try to demonstrate ‘Coriolis effect’ (which is a scam I believeand will charge you some money for that. Don’t fall for it.

Yah! It is interesting to see yourself in two regions at the same time whereby you can also diced not to stand in any and that means you are standing in the EQUATOR LINE. Other interesting thing at the point, around there a big art gallery with good hospitable people and always ready to save you.

Loved being at the 0 latitude point and getting explanation about how this affects the movement of water i.e drainage and flow depending on if you are on the southern or northern hemisphere. They performed a little experiment demonstrating this for like 10k ugx. Its a cool experience

Loved the place .. again needs to be more attractive to tourists ... the spot is ver interesting but hardly u find anyone to serve tourists such as the water spinning experiment, there was only one guy who did the experiment who was busy with tourist before me ... I had to leave without it ... unfortunately...

Not much to see here obviously just the line in the road and a nice sign to take some photos, I suggest to have some other destinations on your travel while coming here just for the quick stop.
