Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park (Sotho: "Musi oa Thunya" [Mosi wa Tunya] ""The Smoke Which Thunders""), is an UNESCO World Heritage site that is home to one half of the Mosi-oa-Tunya "— 'The Smoke Which Thunders' —" known worldwide as Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River. The river forms the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, so the falls are shared by the two countries, and the park is 'twin' to the Victoria Falls National Park on the Zimbabwean side. ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ comes from the Kololo or Lozi language and the name is now used throughout Zambia, and in parts of
Victoria Falls National Park in the 5 Nation Kavango - Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area. Victoria Falls National Park Victoria Falls National Park in north-western Zimbabwe protects the south and east bank of the Zambezi River in the area of the world-famous Victoria Falls. It extends along the Zambezi river from the larger Zambezi National Park about 6 km above the falls to about 12 km below the 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.
