Victoria Falls is a spectacular waterfall located about midway along the course of the Zambezi River, at the border between Zambia to the north and Zimbabwe to the south.
It is roughly twice the height of North America's Niagara Falls and well over twice its width. The waterfall spans the entire breadth of the Zambezi River at one of its widest points (more than 5,500 feet) and is approximately twice as wide and twice as deep as Niagara Falls.
The falls were described by the Kololo tribe living in the area in the 1800s as ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ – ‘The Smoke that Thunders’.
