The falls originate from the Zambezi River, and upon reaching Victoria Falls Gorge on the Zambia-Zimbabwe border, the water suddenly plunges over 100 meters down into the rocky abyss, creating a magnificent spectacle. The water cascades from above, sending up spray clouds that reach up to half a kilometer high. Because of this, Victoria Falls is also known as Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning "screaming smoke."
Victoria Falls is truly a magnificent sight, a world natural wonder, according to CNN and many other reputable organizations. Victoria Falls is 1,800 meters wide and 100 meters high, with a flow rate of up to 7,500 cubic meters, forming a massive, frothy waterfall.
Even from 40km away, you can still see the thin layer of mist rising from the falls. Victoria Falls is twice as tall and one and a half times as long as Niagara Falls, located on the US-Canada border. Every second, Victoria Falls plunges more than 100 meters into the gorge, a distance of approximately 1,100 meters.3It is a waterfall with the largest water flow in the world.
Victoria Falls consists of four parts: Devil's Falls, Main Falls, Rainbow Falls, and East Falls, separated by islands and natural coral reefs. A railway bridge near the falls was built in 1905 to serve the tourism industry.
Visitors can travel by boat across the bridge to experience the thrill of arriving in this area. But to fully appreciate Victoria Falls, you should book a helicopter tour.
There are two types of tours to choose from: a 15-minute flight for $150 and a 25-minute flight for $280. From the helicopter, you will admire the majestic Victoria Falls, and you will find the falls breathtakingly beautiful.
