Travel checklist, experience the awe-inspiring thunder and mist.

🌈Victoria Falls, which means "the smoke that thunders" (Mosi-oa-Tunya) in the local Tonga language, is a white ribbon of water falling 108 meters from the Zambezi River, with a sound like thunder and mist like rain. The waterfall is located on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, surrounded by strange mountains and waters: the basalt canyon twists and turns, with wild date palms and ivory palms growing on both sides of the riverbank, mahogany trees growing in clusters, and vines covering the small islands, like Medusa's hair. 🌟Travelers come straight to the waterfall, but besides that, you can also observe wild giants such as African elephants, baboons, rhinos, and hippos. You can also seek excitement by trying helicopter rides, bungee jumping, and rafting in the rapids below the waterfall. Brave (or reckless) people like to jump into the "Devil's Swimming Pool", where there is a natural rock wall at the bottom of the pool that can serve as an underwater barrier separating swimmers from the abyss. 🔥The Victoria Falls Bridge, which has a history of over 100 years, spans the second gorge of the waterfall, connecting Zambia and Zimbabwe, and is incredibly spectacular. Today, tourists can admire the waterfall from above or below the bridge. SEE IT! You can approach the waterfall from both sides. Livingstone in Zambia is a popular base camp, and there are also beautiful views on the Zimbabwean side.
