Soaring Above the Majestic Victoria Falls: A

Traveling over Victoria Falls by helicopter was simply incredible! The moment I saw the falls from above, I was completely wowed. The team on the ground was very accommodating and made the experience as memorable as possible. At the end of our 12-minute ride, we had the option to purchase a video of our experience. While longer trips are available, the 12-minute ride was enough for us to get a sensational view of the falls from the heavens. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Victoria Falls! We arranged our helicopter trip over Victoria Falls through our hotel which made the whole experience seamless and stress-free. However, if you prefer, you can book your trip directly with helicopter companies in Zimbabwe. Regardless of how you book it, the views from above are simply breathtaking and not to be missed. Don't forget to bring your camera to capture the unforgettable views of one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World!#victoriafalls #helicopter #zimbabwe

12-day tour guide for South Africa + Zimbabwe + Zambia

South Africa Travel Guide Travel Season South Africa is located in the southern hemisphere, with seasons opposite to those in the northern hemisphere. Most areas (Pretoria, Johannesburg) have a tropical grassland climate, the western coast is a tropical desert climate, and the southern coast (Cape Town) has a Mediterranean climate. South Africa is suitable for travel all year round, with good weather throughout the year. The best travel season is from September to November, when the weather is good and the temperature is moderate, with an average temperature of 15-25°C. The year is divided into four seasons, December to January is summer, with the highest temperature reaching 32~38°C; June to August is winter, with the lowest temperature reaching -10°C ~-12°C Power Socket The voltage in South Africa is 220V/230V, 50HZ, using the South African standard three-round socket, it is recommended to buy a conversion plug in advance in your home country, or purchase it at major airports and large shopping malls in South Africa Culture, Customs and Taboos Social Etiquette South African social etiquette can be summarized as 'black and white' and 'mainly British'. The so-called 'black and white' refers to: constrained by race, religion, and customs, the social etiquette followed by black and white South Africans is different; mainly British refers to: for a long period of history, white people controlled the South African government, and white people's social etiquette, especially British-style social etiquette, prevailed in South African society. At present, the common greeting etiquette adopted by South Africans in social situations is a handshake, and their titles for their interlocutors are mainly 'Mr.', 'Miss', or 'Mrs'. Among black tribes, especially in rural areas, black South Africans often show a style different from the mainstream of society. For example, they are accustomed to giving ostrich or peacock feathers to distinguished guests. The appropriate thing for guests to do at this moment is to insert these precious feathers into their hats or hair. Taboos South Africans who believe in Christianity avoid the number 13; black South Africans greatly respect their ancestors, and they particularly avoid disrespect to their ancestors by outsiders. When talking with South Africans, there are four topics that should not be touched: 1. Do not praise white people 2. Do not comment on the relationship and contradictions between different black tribes or factions. 3. Do not criticize the ancient customs of black people 4. Do not congratulate the other party for having a boy Itinerary Introduction DAY1 Shanghai-Addis Ababa DAY2 Addis Ababa-Cape Town DAY3 Cape Peninsula Tour DAY4 Winery Town-Dias Maritime Museum & Post Tree-Garden Avenue Town DAY5 Garden Avenue Town-Oudtshoorn Ostrich Park-Wild Beach-Knysna-Garden Avenue Town DAY6 Garden Avenue Town-Tsitsikamma National Park-Port Elizabeth DAY7 Port Elizabeth-Johannesburg-Sun City DAY8 Sun City-Pretoria-Johannesburg DAY9 Johannesburg-Victoria Falls City DAY10 Victoria Falls City-Livingstone-Victoria Falls City DAY11 Victoria Falls City-Addis Ababa-Shanghai DAY12 Shanghai

7 different species of plants in color violet

Yes, violet, not purple. Purple is more reddish and saturated, while violet is more bluish and less saturated. Many of you may say it’s unnecessary to distinguish violet from purple since they look so similar, but most other animals don’t share the same types of cones and “post-processing” with us, which means purple and violet may look completely different to them! Today let’s look at 7 different species of #plants in color violet (Or purple, it’s your call)! 1. #ValensoleProvenzaFrancia 📷：@curly.beard 2. #JacarandaTree, #SouthAfrica 📷：@traveltrotters_za 3. #Lavender 📷：DM for credit or removal 4. #Bellflower 📷：@sunny.funnyno.1 5. #Allium, V&A Dundee, #Edinburgh @📷：sam_and_her_cam 6. #Aster, RHS Garden Wisley, #UnitedKingdom 📷：@ian_trought 7. #Wisteria, Kensington and Chelsea, United Kingdom 📷：@sparrowinlondon 8. #Clematis 📷：@dakar_taki_pies 9.

In the world of mankind, mankind is nothing but a small dust. It recognizes the greatness of nature and the smallness of self. It is the Victoria Falls in Africa. At the junction of Zambia and Zimbabwe in Africa, there is a raging river, the Zambezi River. The Zambezi River suddenly fell into a huge cliff, forming the world's largest waterfall: Victoria Falls. "This river seems to have disappeared from the earth. After only 80 feet, it disappeared into the opposite rock. Except for a cloud of white clouds, I couldnt see anything. Like thousands of small meteors, all in one direction, leaving a droplet after each meteor. If you see such a waterfall, I think, angels will stop there." In 1855, The Scottish explorer Livingston discovered the scene of this continent, and when I came to the waterfall, I felt so deeply. All the natural forces that make people tremble, they only see their sounds. When they reach the waterfall, the sound of the water rang through the sky, and the mist of the waterfall is lost in the valley. In the looming, several rainbows leaped into the eye. Everyone is wet, but it is this immersive realism that deeply feels the unparalleled shock of nature.

Half-day tour in Zambia, Africa, visiting Victoria Falls, vendors selling gold nuggets on the street

Flashing Zambia, unlocking another African country. At the border junction of Botswana and Zambia, spent 1000 Zambian Kwacha (about 375 RMB), took a taxi across the country to Livingstone Airport in Zambia to send people. Took a car to tour the city of Livingstone, took photos and checked in Victoria Falls, located at the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The taxi driver took us directly into the waterfall scenic area, and each gave him 10 US dollars (71 RMB). British missionary and explorer David Livingstone, discovered this large waterfall for the first time as a white man during his journey in 1855, and named it after the name of the British queen. Victoria Falls was listed in the 'World Heritage List' in 1989. The city of Zambia where the waterfall is located is also named after this explorer, Livingstone. There are many vendors selling tourist souvenirs to tourists. There are even gold nuggets, one for 500 Zambian Kwacha (about 187 RMB), three for 1200 Zambian Kwacha (about 450 RMB), and the price can be negotiated. The price is really cheap, but there is a high probability that it is fake, used to scam tourists. You can also spend 150 US dollars (1071 RMB), take a helicopter to enjoy Victoria Falls in the air, but only for 15 minutes, the price is still relatively expensive, you can try if you have the opportunity.

#historicallandmarks 😳 very beautiful and scary it's a devil's pool (Victoria falls Livingstone Zambia )

Travel checklist, experience the awe-inspiring thunder and mist.

🌈Victoria Falls, which means "the smoke that thunders" (Mosi-oa-Tunya) in the local Tonga language, is a white ribbon of water falling 108 meters from the Zambezi River, with a sound like thunder and mist like rain. The waterfall is located on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, surrounded by strange mountains and waters: the basalt canyon twists and turns, with wild date palms and ivory palms growing on both sides of the riverbank, mahogany trees growing in clusters, and vines covering the small islands, like Medusa's hair. 🌟Travelers come straight to the waterfall, but besides that, you can also observe wild giants such as African elephants, baboons, rhinos, and hippos. You can also seek excitement by trying helicopter rides, bungee jumping, and rafting in the rapids below the waterfall. Brave (or reckless) people like to jump into the "Devil's Swimming Pool", where there is a natural rock wall at the bottom of the pool that can serve as an underwater barrier separating swimmers from the abyss. 🔥The Victoria Falls Bridge, which has a history of over 100 years, spans the second gorge of the waterfall, connecting Zambia and Zimbabwe, and is incredibly spectacular. Today, tourists can admire the waterfall from above or below the bridge. SEE IT! You can approach the waterfall from both sides. Livingstone in Zambia is a popular base camp, and there are also beautiful views on the Zimbabwean side.

Awe-inspiring Beauty: Victoria Falls in Zimba

Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe is an absolute must-see destination for any traveler visiting Africa. The falls were so beautiful and majestic that I was left in complete awe. Visiting during the rainy season was a great idea, as the falls were full and surrounded by lush greenery. If you happen to visit during this time, make sure to rent a colorful raincoat from the market across the street for $5 - it's not only practical, but also adds to the fun! One of the best parts of visiting Victoria Falls is that you can walk to the left once you exit the falls park, after a short walk, you’ll cross the bridge to enter into Zambia for some truly unique travel shots. I highly recommend doing this and taking advantage of the opportunity to explore two countries in one day. We chose to book our tour with Shearwater, and it was a great decision. We were able to safely and conveniently cross the border into Zimbabwe for the day and experience everything Victoria Falls had to offer. I would highly recommend this company to anyone planning a trip to the falls. Overall, I had an amazing day at Victoria Falls and it's definitely one of the most fun experiences I've had in ages. Don't miss out on this incredible natural wonder - it's worth the trip!

#tripaway Went on safari through the park on two different days. It was terrific. Saw a variety of wildlife through out. The area was in drought at the time of our visit and most of the animals were observed at various watering holes. Well worth seeing.if you want to get close to wildlife this is a must visit #tripaway
