Southern Province

The Zambezi River and the Kafue Flats shape much of Zambia’s Southern Province, sustaining cattle herding, maize cultivation and fishing communities. Near these coordinates, the interior is largely a warm, seasonally dry plateau of farms and open woodland. Choma, the provincial capital, is an important road and rail centre on the route between Lusaka and Livingstone. Farther southwest, Livingstone lies beside Mosi-oa-Tunya, or Victoria Falls, where the Zambezi plunges into a basalt gorge on the Zimbabwe border; the falls are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The province also has close ties to Tonga-speaking communities and cattle-rearing traditions. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Zambia’s Southern Province.
