That Central Fall has a width of 473 yds. On the east is the Rainbow Fall. This one on the west is the Devil's Cataract. The mist issuing from the falls can be seen for miles and gives rise to the native name "Roaring Smoke." The Falls are midway along the course of the Zambesi River, between the borders of Zambia and Zimbabwe. They were named by Livingstone for the British Queen Victoria.".
