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.

falls a Humanity Heritage Site,
covering a protected area of
8,780 hectares.

oThis is called “The Devil's Pool”, a natural
swimming pool formed in the rocks just above
the 108 metre high Victoria Falls!!!
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.

abyss!!!
