			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Also known as &#8216;Mosi-oa-Tunya (the smoke that thunders), Victoria Falls is a signature feature along the Zambezi river &#8211; Zambia&#8217;s largest river. Deafening roars and a thick blanket of mist are produced as millions of litres of water falls down the 1708 m wide cliff.</p>
<p>During the rainy season, the blanket of mist becomes so thick thus making it almost impossible to catch a glimpse of the Victoria Falls. The falls gets too dull during the climax of the dry season and this is a good time to visit the area. July and August, when the season is dry summer, are the best months to view the falls. Although it is recommended to view the falls from a bird&#8217;s-eye view, most people prefer to view the falls from the ground where they can feel sprays of the falls on their faces.</p>
<p>The grand Victoria Falls Bridge stands not far from the falls. The architecture that joins Zambia and Zimbabwe is a prized piece that provides an expansive view of the Zambezi and the adjacent rain forests. Bungee jumping is the most popular activity at the bridge. The fall is the second longest bungee distance in the world covering 111 metres long. The friendly Kariba and Cahora Bassa dams are the other remarkable sights along the Zambezi.</p>
<p>The famous Victoria Falls Bridge is situated a stone throw away from the falls. The bridge joins Zambia and Zimbabwe and it offers excellent views of River Zambezi and the adjacent forests. Most visitors to the site take part in Bunjee jumping activity &#8211; a popular leisure activity at the bridge. At 111 metres long, Victoria Falls is the world&#8217;s longest bungee distance. Other interesting sites that can be spotted from the bridge include Cahora Bassa and Kariba dams.</p>
<p>River Zambia has some of the most fascinating wildlife viewing opportunities in Southern Africa and this is due to the large number of national parks positioned along its course. They include Mana pools park, Zambezi and of course the Victoria Falls National Park.</p>
<p>Besides boasting a huge number of attractions, the Zambezi offers unlimited accommodation options. These range from luxury hotels to outdoor tents, hence the destination suits travellers of all budgets. Victoria Falls, Royal Livingstone and Thorn Tree Lodge are the most preferred hotels in the area.</p>
