    Standing in front of Victoria Falls, the roaring sound of water trembled in the chest, and the splashing mist immediately wet the body, like a sudden tropical rainstorm. When the sun was slanting, the rainbow directly across the canyon seemed within reach. The most exciting thing is to lie on the edge of the devil's pool, lying on the cliff and watching the 100-meter abyss at your feet, and the adrenaline rush. The local guide will suddenly take you into the rainforest trail, and the waterfall will change again at another angle. Remember to bring a waterproof phone bag you will definitely want to record every second of this shock, but the camera can't hold its momentum.

    This visual-heritage- and contemporary arts gallery is located right in the city center of the capital Harare, which is a 20-minute drive from Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, and also 20-minute drive from Chitungwiza town my hometown (visit bars there to experience locals party style). The gallery is surrounded by a host of places you can enjoy after an exquisite day of local talent viewing. Joina city, a shopping mall, is just a few blocks away. Gava hideout is also nearby.

    Balancing Rock Park is famous for two reasons. One is that the balancing rocks in this park are a masterpiece of nature, and the second is that this park appears on Zimbabwe's banknotes. Of course it is famous.
