Victoria Falls

The famous Victoria Falls on the Zambeze River is located on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, in the Livingstone district of Zambia and the Hwange district of Zimbabwe. They are 1.7 km wide and 108 metres high, an extraordinary spectacle, with water dropping into a narrow and very deep abyss.

David Livingstone visited the Falls in 1855 and named them in honor of Queen Victoria. Locally they are still called “Mosi-oa-Tunya”, which means “The smoke that thunders.” It is one of the greatest tourist atractions on the African continent. In 1989 UNESCO declared these Falls a Humanity Heritage Site, covering a protected area of 8,780 hectares.

A child on the edge of the abyss !!!

This is called “The Devil's Pool”, a natural swimming pool formed in the rocks just above the 108-meter high Victoria Falls! o

Challenging danger!

The bravest ones stand on the very edge to get their photos taken!

From September to December, due to low water levels, it is safe to swim on the edge of this waterfall.

Jumping into the pool!

Unforgettable!!!!

Curiosity overcomes fear...

Daring!!!

Taking original photos!!

Such emotion...

And euphoria...

An adrenalin discharge and yell of excitement at the edge of the abyss!

Well? Did that excite you?
