Victoria Falls, located in Livingstone, Zambia, is one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the world. Known locally as "Mosi-oa-Tunya," which means "The Smoke That Thunders," the falls are formed as the Zambezi River plunges over a cliff, creating a powerful cascade that spans 1.7 kilometers in width and drops approximately 108 meters into the gorge below. The mist and roar from the falls can be seen and heard from miles away.
