They had told me about these falls and how majestic they were but nothing prepares me for the absolute wonder of standing beneath this spray and realizing that the entire power of the creator was washing over my face through the waters of the Zambezi. . The falls are loud. They are boisterous. They are thundering. They engulf you and it feels like you’re inside them while you’re watching them from this bridge. Wow!! Mosi oa Tunya. You have me in awe. . Also, @jaydabliu shot this. . #UnscramblingAfrica #Zambia #Livingstone #MosioaTunya (at Livingstone, Zambia)

Getting even wetter on the Zambian side of Victoria Falls. Don’t stare too long if you have to pee.

I’m still breathless at the sight of these falls days after seeing them. Just edited these photos and I’m still shook at these towers of water pouring down. . #UnscramblingAfrica #DJI #Zambia #MosiOaTunya (at Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park)

Just a small section of the ginormous Mosi-oa-Tunya, “The Smoke That Thunders,” seen from the Zimbabwe side of the Zambezi river.

Also known as Victoria Falls.

We thought we’d seen Victoria Falls, from Zambia, but it’s a whole other animal on the Zimbabwe side. When the Zambezi River stretches 1.7km wide and comes crashing down at 500 million liters of water per second, it’s a visceral explosion of thunder, mist, and rainbows. It's the largest sheet of falling water on earth and makes the list The 7 Natural Wonders of the World. Made of eight basalt gorges and five distinct waterfalls, this is no one-hit wonder. Hiking the rim for two hours, I couldn’t believe how unique each vista point was and how immersed you become in the falls. I left soaking wet and with the biggest smile on my face. Watch this reel and feel the rush of the falls!

#Repost @unesco (@get_repost) ・・・ Do you know where we are today? These are among the most spectacular waterfalls in the world… Welcome to The Mosi-oa-Tunya/Victoria Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Mosi-oa-Tunya/Victoria Falls is the place is where the Zambezi River, which is more than 2 km wide at this point, plunges noisily down a series of basalt gorges and raises an iridescent mist that can be seen more than 20 km away. This is indeed the world’s greatest sheet of falling water. It is 1,708 m wide and with up to 500 million litres per minute descending at 61 m (Devil’s Cataract), 83 m (Main Falls), 99 m (Rainbow Falls), 98 m (Eastern Cataract). These waterfalls are significant worldwide for their exceptional geological and geomorphological features and the spray, mist and rainbows they create. This World Heritage site is actually a transboundary property, shared between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It extends over 6,860ha comprising large parts of the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, Zambia, and the Victoria Falls National Park, Zimbabwe, as well as the Zambezi National Park, also in Zimbabwe. These waterfalls are a major tourist attraction, this is why urban infrastructure developments, tourism facilities and services can impact the site’s integrity. Since its inscription on the World Heritage List in 1989, UNESCO is advocating for a careful management of the Mosi-oa-Tunya/Victoria Falls site to avoid compromising its exceptional beauty and its outstanding universal value. It is our duty to protect and preserve all World Heritage sites for future generations. #WorldHeritage #VictoriaFalls #MosiOaTunya #NationalPark #Zambia #Zimbabwe #UNESCO #Zambezi #River #ProtectHeritage #Heritage #NaturalHeritage #Tourism #SustainableTourism #SustainableDevelopment #Africa #PriorityAfrica #Nature Photo credit: Adam Photography/iStock/Getty Images 📸📸📸📸 https://www.instagram.com/p/B19IV_rg1aCIFRFuJrMsZO0qs6KP1ssJGZAM7U0/?igshid=wr9372efq48
