Victoria Falls - The magnificent Waterfalls

As far as I know, Victoria Falls is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and this is the most notable waterfall on the Zambezi River in Africa. It is famous for being the largest waterfall in the world, in the wet season. People there call that waterfall as "smoke that thunders". The water makes a thundering noise as it falls over the cliff and down into the Zambezi River below. A thick fog of water vapor is always there around the falls.

Maybe others still do not know the interesting facts of Victoria Falls. Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River is located on the border between the countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe in the continent of Africa.
There are 550 million liters of water drops 305 feet (93 m) every minute over the cliff at Victoria Falls and continues flowing downstream as the lower Zambezi River.

The European explorer, Doctor David Livingstone called the falls after Queen Victoria in England when he visited there in 1855. The falls have been protected by the Zambezi National Park since 1983 and Victoria Falls National Park since January 2013.

Tourists visit Victoria Falls during dry season between May to October to see the beauty of the falls. Tourists can bungee jump from a bridge crossing the river downstream of the falls. With strong ropes tied to their ankles, they fall 364 feet until they hang upside down just above the water. Around this gigantic waterfalls there are many kinds of wild animals.
Humans and animals have lived around Victoria Falls for at least 2 million years. The native African people who live around Victoria Falls today speak the Bantu language. They also speak Portuguese and English.
