best places to visit in zambia
Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park
Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, also known as ‘Smoke which Thunders’ is home to the most striking sections of the Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River.
As the second-largest single cataract on the globe, it’s easy to see why that part of Zambia’s mighty river has garnered itself a UNESCO heritage tag. And when you add in the populations of white rhinos, Angolan giraffes, zebras and the occasional elephant that also tread this way, it’s even easier to see why quite so many visitors flock to this corner of the country every year.
Lusaka
Lusaka is the capital and largest city of Zambia, and one of the fastest developing cities in southern Africa.
It is where Zambia’s go-getters and entrepreneurs flock in search of opportunity. Its markets – like the sprawling Soweto Market and its medley of shamanist and used car part stalls – burst with chatter, as locals haggle their way through the wares. The interesting Cathedral of the Holy Cross in the heart of the city is worth a gander, and so are the enlightening exhibitions of the National Museum.
