Summary
| Description |
English: Kibiro Salt Gardens, located in Hoima district, Uganda, is a historical site that dates back centuries. It is known for its traditional salt extraction methods and is considered one of the oldest salt gardens in East Africa.
The history of Kibiro Salt Gardens can be traced back to the pre-colonial era when the indigenous people of the area, primarily the Alur and the Banyoro, discovered the natural salt springs in the region. These salt springs were formed due to volcanic activity in the area, resulting in the presence of saltwater in the underground aquifers. |
