Victoria Falls description and photos - Zimbabwe: Victoria Falls. Detailed information about the attraction. Description, photographs and a map showing the nearest significant objects. Title in English - Victoria Falls. Photo and descriptionThe Zambezi River turns into a foamy and roaring cascade of water falling from steep cliffs of one of the most magnificent waterfalls, which are literally a wall of water about 1,675 m long and 107 m high. When the river The Zambezi is deep, 7,500 cu. m of water passes through Victoria Falls in a second. The volume of water is so great and it rushes down with such power that a cloud of spray rising into the air can be seen even 40 km away. The local name of Victoria Falls - "Mosi-oa-tunya" - translates as "Smoke that thunders." In the spray of this majestic waterfall, a rainbow often plays, rising to a height of 300 m.We also recommend reading House-Museum of Yuri Gagarin description and photo - Russia - North-West: Murmansk region Topic: Victoria Falls description and photos - Zimbabwe: Victoria Falls. |
