Mosia-oa-Tunya - the smoke that thunders - call the native inhabitants the Victoria Falls. The dispersed waterfog can already be seen from the distance above the plans of the Zambesi River. The southern sun creates colourful and spectacular rainbows.
Canaima National Park covers 30000 square km.
It was established by the Venezuelan government in 1962, because of its spectacular
waterfalls and characteristic table top mountains - the Tepuis. In 1994 the park became a UNESCO World Heritage site.
