The Victoria Falls
The largest falling sheet
of water in the world. From the seventeen hundred metre-wide lip, the
Zambezi River plunges in excess of one hundred metres into the chasm,
hurling clouds of moisture hundreds of metres into the air.
The Falls are
generally at their most spectacular during the period February to May.
From September to November the flow is at its lowest, with several of
the falls on the Zambian bank virtually dry.
