Victoria Falls is one of the largest waterfalls in the world, with a width of 1,708 meters and a height of 108 meters .

The falls were named after Queen Victoria by Scottish explorer David Livingstone, who discovered them in 1855.

The local name for Victoria Falls is "Mosi-oa-Tunya," which means "The Smoke that Thunders" in the Tonga language.

The falls are located on the Zambezi River, which is the fourth-longest river in Africa.

Victoria Falls is considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

The falls are part of the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, which is home to a variety of wildlife, including elephants, lions, and baboons.

Victoria Falls is a popular destination for adventure activities such as bungee jumping, white-water rafting, and zip-lining.

During the rainy season, the falls can produce a spray that rises up to 400 meters in the air and can be seen from up to 50 kilometers away.

The Victoria Falls Bridge, which spans the Zambezi River near the falls, was built in 1905 and is a popular spot for bungee jumping.

Victoria Falls is shared by two countries, Zimbabwe and Zambia, and can be accessed from both sides.
