The Victoria Falls Hotel, opened in 1904, is a grand Edwardian-style hotel situated on the edge of the Batoka Gorge in Livingstone, Zambia. With its manicured lawns and verandas, it provides stunning views of the Victoria Falls Bridge and the spray from the falls. The hotel exudes old-world charm, featuring period furnishings and a famous high tea service. Guests and visitors alike can enjoy the ambiance, explore the gardens, and watch the steam train cross the bridge, a scene that has remained largely unchanged for over a century.
