Visit
Come to Kasempa
Kasempa Boma lies in the heart of North-Western Province, on the plateau between the Kabompo and Lunga rivers, roughly midway between Kaoma and Solwezi. It is a country of miombo woodland, clear rivers and open farming country — and it is the traditional capital of the Kaonde.
- Kamusongolwa Hill — the granite hill above the boma where Jipumpu built his capital and turned back the Lozi in 1898.
- Lukena, the Royal Palace — the seat of Senior Chief Kasempa, near Kasempa Boma. Visits are by prior arrangement with the Royal Secretariat.
- Juba ja Nsomo — held on 6 June every year. Visitors and guests of the chiefdom are welcome; write ahead so we can receive you properly.
- Getting here — by road from Solwezi or Mumbwa via the Kasempa turn-off on the Great North-West route.
