The Majestic Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls is the only famous waterfall in Zimbabwe, and it is an awesome sight to behold. More than twice the height and width of North America's Niagara Falls, Victoria Falls is considered the largest waterfall in the world by volume. As more travelers have made Victoria Falls a stop on their itinerary, it has become easier to access and to enjoy this natural spectacle.
 Victoria Falls is partly in Zimbabwe and partly in Zambia. The Falls are known locally as "the smoke that thunders" because during the rainy season, its mist reaches 1,000 ft in the air. In the past, the falls were most commonly accessed from the Zimbabwe side, but political developments temporarily caused a drop in visitors. As of April 2011, the U.S. Department of State had not issued any travel advisories for Zimbabwe. The falls can also be accessed from the Zambian side. July through September is generally considered the best time to visit because of favorable weather and the views available to visitors.
Victoria Falls lies along the Zambezi River, straddling the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. The local Koloko tribe referred to the Falls as “Mosi-oa-Tunya,” or “The Smoke That Thunders." The water tumbles over a cliff, then flows through a series of gorges which zigzag across the countryside. Lush rain forest surrounds the Falls, hosting numerous species of wildlife sustained by the Zambezi River.
