The Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe
If you are nature tripper and lover as well, you cannot resist with the beauty of Victoria falls located in Zimbabwe. It is the spot in Africa where you can enjoy everything that you see.
The Victoria Falls are one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. If you’re planning a trip to Southern Africa you simply have to witness this mile-long curtain of falling water. As the explorerDavid Livingstone remarked when he first saw them “scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight”.
The Victoria Falls lie in between Zambia andZimbabwe in Southern Africa. The falls are part of two national parks, Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia and Victoria Falls National Park in Zimbabwe.
The Victoria Falls are just over 1 mile wide (1.7 km) and 355 feet (108 m) high. During the wet season over 500 million liters (19 million cubic feet) of water plummets over the edge into the Zambezi River. This incredible amount of water generates a huge amount of spray which shoots 1000 feet into the sky and can be seen 30 miles away, hence the nameMosi-oa-Tunya (Smoke that thunders).
