Limulunga is one of the two compounds of the Litunga, the king of the Lozi people of western Zambia. It lies on high ground at the edge of the Barotse Floodplain of the Zambezi, about 15 kilometres north of the town of Mongu and 21 kilometres east of the main channel of the river. The Litunga uses Limulunga during the rainy season and his other compound at Lealui in the dry season, and the annual move between the two is celebrated in the Kuomboka festival.
