Is Zambia fun? The scenic spot in Zambia is Lake Kariba. Kariba Lake was formed after the construction of Kariba Hydropower Station on Zambezi River. The dam of Kariba Hydropower Station is128m high and127m long, just like a giant dragon on the Zambian River.

In addition to climbing the dam to observe the scenery of Lake Kariba, you can also go fishing in Lake Kariba by boat. There are also some resorts and colorful entertainment facilities by the lake. Mosio Tunia Falls is located on the Zambezi River. The waterfall is 122 meters high and 1800 meters wide, so this scene is very spectacular, and you can hear earth-shattering water sounds from a distance. This waterfall, also known as Victoria Falls, is one of the three largest waterfalls in the world. Come here and feel the magnificent and obvious landscape here. Zambezi River is the longest river in southern Africa, which flows through Zambia. In the upper reaches of Zambezi River, the water surface here is relatively calm, and there are few human footprints, so we can see the leisurely life of many animals here, such as elephants and crocodiles.

At the junction of Zambia and Zimbabwe, a huge waterfall is formed here, that is, Mosio Tunia Waterfall, which is Victoria Waterfall. It was invented by an Englishman, so it was named after the Queen of England. He is the first person to come here, so his description here is the most primitive. Those pouring rapids fall in the same direction like many comets dragging white light. Their scenery is so wonderful that even if angels fly over, they will look back. Later, after Zambia became independent, it was time to restore its original name, Mosio Tunia Falls, which in the local language means rain and fog thrown out by thunder.
