Ten kilometers from the city centre along Jinja Road is Kireka trading centre. The centre is at the base of Kireka hill, 4,189 feet. Previously an insignificant hill hosting the Seventh Day Adventist church headquarters, Kireka has gained prominence since the Kabaka (king) of Buganda Ronald Muwenda Mutebi set up a palace atop the hill.
The hill affords a pictures view of Lake Victoria and nearly islands, and the expensive Bukasa wetland. Mandela International Sports Stadium is to the east of Kireka hill.
