Overview:
Vast lakes, rich wetlands and
breathtaking African sunsets contribute to
Zambia's scenic splendor. A land blessed with 17 waterfalls
including the spectacular Victoria Falls, the country attracts
nature lovers and thrill seekers alike. The wild Zambezi River
is perfect for adrenaline rush activities such as river rafting,
canoeing safaris, river surfing and tiger fishing.
Zambia is the land of the legendary African walking safari. Big
game, abundant birdlife and raw, pulsating wilderness are what
visitors can expect to find. The Zambian government has long
recognized the economic importance of its wildernesses and is
acutely aware of environmental concerns: almost one-third of the
country is given over to national parks and game reserves.
First colonized by the British South African Company in 1889, it
was not until 1924, when the company ceded administrative
control to the British Crown (whereupon it became the colony of
Northern Rhodesia), that serious exploitation of the country's
main natural resource, copper, began. Though this could have
made Zambia one of the continent's richest countries, it is one
of the world's poorest.
