Activities
Great Zimbabwe Monument
The monument is the largest and most historical attraction in the country. The country also got its name from this monument which is a ruined stone city dating as far back as the 11th century. Near the site, there is a museum where you will find ancient Persian pottery, a Chinese writing set and brass ornaments from Assam in India, all unearthed amid or near the ruins and all extremely old.
Lake Mutirikwi
This is the largest man-made lake in Zimbabwe and it is a great boating and fishing attraction. You can catch breath-taking view of the game park, and surroundings from the dam walls of the lake. For the ultimate experience, you can hop on one of the cruise boats that operates at regular intervals daily.
