Located in southern Africa on the Zambezi River between the countries of Zambia and Zimbabwe, this beautiful waterfall is also the known to be the largest in the world. This was found by a Scottish explorer; David Livingstone who gave the name for this falls in honour of his queen. However, the indigenous name of this waterfall is 'Mosi-oa-Tunya' — literally meaning the 'Smoke that Thunders'. While it is neither the highest nor the widest waterfall in the world, it is claimed to be the largest. This claim is based on a width of 1,708 metres (5,604 ft) and height of 108 metres (354 ft), forming the largest sheet of falling water in the world. Victoria Falls and the adjoining parklands were collectively designated a World Heritage site in 1989.
