Victoria Falls is one of the the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Mosi-oa-Tunya as it is locally called is the largest waterfall in the world. It is on the Zambezi River that separates Zimbabwe from Zambia. Victoria Falls National Park, Zimbabwe protects the south and east bank of the Zambezi River in the area of the world-famous Victoria Falls. A notable feature of the park is the rainforest which grows in the spray of the falls, including ferns, palms, liana vines, and a number of trees such as mahogany not seen elsewhere in the region. The park is located within the Zambezian and Mopane woodlands eco-region.
