Victoria Falls Travel Guide

Roughly 750 mi from its humble origins as an insignificant spring, the Zambezi River has grown more than a mile wide. Without much warning the river bends south, the current speeds up, and the entire mass of water is forced into a single fissure. More than 1 million gallons of water disappear over a vertical, 300-foot-high drop in the time it takes an average reader to reach the end of this paragraph. The resulting spray is astounding, the brute force forming a cloud of mist visible 40 mi away on a clear day.
