Victoria Falls Facts, Zimbabwe and Zambia

Victoria Falls, on the Zambezi River between Zambia and Zimbabwe, is breathtaking.

Modernly, Victoria Falls is the largest curtain of cascading water.

The Zambezi becomes a raging stream through stunning gorges as the falls crash over a huge basalt rock.

A similar basalt wall topped by misty rain forest faces the Falls.

The brave visitor can see the Falls from a walkway along the woodland edge.

The Knife-edge Bridge offers the best view of the Eastern Cataract, Main Falls, and Boiling Pot.

More than 500 million cubic metres of water every minute fall over the cliff into a gorge over 100 metres below.
