The National Botanical Gardens of Uganda are in located in Entebbe, Uganda. They were laid out in 1898 by the first curator, A Whyte, close to the shore of Lake Victoria. The gardens are divided into different zones, including a rainforest zone. This rainforest formed the backdrop to scenes from the Tarzan films, featuring Johnny Weissmuller, shot in the 1940s.[1][2][3][4] The Botanical Gardens are a place of relaxation, corporate events and meeting.
