The Victoria Falls, between Zimbabwe and Zambia

The Victoria Falls is one of the 7 natural wonders of the world.

It is claimed to be the largest waterfall in the world with a base width of 1708m.

The Victoria falls have 7 gorges.

Almost 300 000 people visit the falls annually!

Formed because of difference in the rates of erosion of sandstone and basalt.

What makes this waterfall special?

Well, of course, it’s the largest waterfall in the world. However, what is really fascinating is the Devil’s Armchair.

The Devil’s Armchair is a deep pool literally at the brink of a 300+ft metres fall! Absolutely incredible!
