Livingstone is the tourism centre from which people can explore the world-famous Victoria Falls, which is one of the most famous places to visit in Zambia. The presence of these falls has also led to the formation of tropical gardens and brooks in the area that you can explore on foot. The city itself is home to several gardens and picnics spots as well.

Apart from the stunning Victoria Falls, you can also check out places like the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park where zebras and deer roam free and the Livingstone Museum which is a hub of local history, archaeology and ethnography. The Railway Museum is also an interesting attraction that outlines the history of the railway in the area.

LUSAKA CITY

Lusaka is the capital city of Zambia and one of the fastest developing urban centres in all of Central Africa. It is located on the southern side of the central plateau at an elevation of 4,196 feet above sea level. It has a well-developed network of highways from the north, south, east and west, making it a highly accessible city from all parts of the continent.

While Lusaka itself is a developing city with roads, shopping malls and tall buildings, the outskirts of the city is a place of exceptional natural beauty that people escape to for a respite from urban living. One of the most popular natural landmarks outside of Lusaka is Lake Kariba, which is ideal for boating trips, picnics and excursions. The area around Lusaka is surrounded by picturesque mountains on the horizon, large stretches of savannah land and peaceful water bodies, ideal for short trips.

KAFUE NATIONAL PARK

Covering a massive area of 22,400 square kms, the Kafue National Park is one of the most sought-after places in Zambia and the second largest National Park in Africa. The Kafue River flows through the park which also acts as a reservoir for the flora and fauna that thrive in the park.

Even though it is one of the oldest parks in the continent, it is largely unexplored, which has led to the increase in population of rare birds and animals. It is home to 33 species of mammals alone. You can enjoy walking safaris, jeep safaris, food, lodging, sports and activities in the park when you visit.

PLAN VISIT

MOSI OA TUNYA NATIONAL PARK

Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is definitely one of most frequented places in Zambia because it is home to the famous Victoria Falls. The National Park shares its border with the city of Livingstone. It was established in 1972 with the express purpose of protecting, preserving and representing the wildlife of Zambia and has been successful in doing so over the years.

While there are many animals and birds that thrive here, people mostly visit to see the many elephants that have made their home in this park, along with exploring the majestic Victoria Falls as well.
