Livingstone, Tourism center in Southern Province, Zambia.
The city stretches along the northern bank of the Zambezi River, featuring colonial British architecture alongside modern African buildings and traditional neighborhoods.
British colonizers established Livingstone as the capital of Northern Rhodesia in 1907, naming it after Scottish explorer David Livingstone who discovered Victoria Falls.
The Livingstone Museum houses extensive collections of artifacts documenting regional traditions, local tribes, and the exploration period of southern Africa.
International travelers access the city through Harry Mwanga Nkumbula International Airport, connecting with major African destinations and offering direct flights to Johannesburg.
The Knife Edge Bridge near Livingstone provides visitors with direct access to a natural viewpoint where water sprays create permanent rainbows over Victoria Falls.
