  • How to visit the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe🇿🇼 | Mosi-oa-Tunya | Zim Ep2
    In this video I'll show you how to visit the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe (Mosi-oa-Tunya - The Smoke That Thunders).
    Victoria Falls are one of the most spectacular, awe-inspiring waterfalls on our planet. It is located
    On the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, on the Zambezi River. The mist from the waterfall can be seen from far away and sustains nearby rainforest.
    Victoria Falls is considered the largest waterfall, based on its combined width (1,708 m/5,604 ft) and height (108 m/354 ft), even though it is not the highest or the widest. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

      @@NickfrNamibia Cos Cecil Rhoded settled in Zimbabwe and is one of the main reason for that foolish demarcation you just showed right? He used our falls and pocketed all the money he received from the tourists since he was resident in Zimbabwe and SOuth Africa. He didnt end here, he swept all our copper for the Betterment of white Zimbabweans and further, WHite SOuth Africans-that was the streak! We know. ANd David Livingstone didnt found Mosi-Oa-Tunya as you lied! Hell no. He was directed/taken their by two locals. The Zambian locals that gave it name(next time find our who they are) are the authentic discoverers of the falls but they just didnt document anything and even if they did - who would ve allowed them to publish such info at the time? Next time tell us another story bro cos you dont shit. Sit down.

    I visited Vic Falls in July 2022. Beautiful. Visitors should bring shoes they don’t mind getting wet and also bring another pair of dry shoes to change into. Raincoats can be rented from the market area near the entrance and are essential to have because the water sprays and you will get super wet!

      I'm Zimbabwean and saw the falls from the Zambian side on my 4th visit and it felt like seeing them for the first time. They are so big that experiences on both sides are so different, I wouldn't even compare them and just recommend you see them from both sides.

    Niagara Falls is split between Canada and the USA. The larger (more beautiful falls) called the Horseshoe Falls are on the Canadian side and the much smaller Bridal Vale Falls is on the USA side of the international border.

    • @ncubesays
      @ncubesays ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, there are 16 viewpoints from the Zimbabwean side compared to 5 on the Zambia side and technically you get a full year viewing experience from Zim as they dry up on the Zam side during the dry season. That said, they are so big that experiences differ on both sides. Knife Edge in Zam is awesome. Recommend seeing them from both.
