If you enjoy the view from one of the many view points at Pugu Hills it makes a difference the way the trees look like if you know something of what has been going on under them. 

The trees you see are belonging to Pugu Village. There is Pugu Kajiungeni, Pugu Stesieni (Station) Kigogo Fresh.

The cattle market where most of the Sukuma herds (Mwanza)are sold is worth a visit.

The Pugu Secondary School at the horizon where the German Missionaries where attacked during the Arab uprising at the end of the 19th century, against the European colonialist. The graves of the victims are still present. 

On the hill behind the Coconut Plantation Von Lettow the German Commander who had to surrender to the Allied troops only after being instructed by Kaiser "Wilhelm" had his camp there before embarking for his 5 years of cat and mouse with the allied troops. Can you imagine the small white wig wam like tents under the trees

Or what to think of the mysterious trail in the Pugu Forest of which you use a small section when closing in on the cave upstream of the water reservoir. Did the teachers of Minaki School spend their Sundays early 20th century, strolling around the Forest looking for lions ? (We are digging for more stories)
