 The moment you think of Africa, the African Safari and its rich wildlife strikes your mind. The second largest continent with 55 countries is nothing sort of an enigma. In this techno-driven era when you see so many African attractions on Television, you must feel like experiencing these attractions in person. The sights, people, culture and food are just unbelievable. From the tallest free-standing mountain of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania to one of the lowest points on earth at Lake Assal in Djibouti, the continent packs a punch. Though the continent is massive but below mentioned attractions are a must in Africa.
The enormous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe is over 1 mile wide. Here water falls from a height of 355 feet. During the rainy season about 500 million liter water falls from its top, resulting in a huge spray of water that shoots an height of 1000 feet and is visible from 30 miles away.
One of the seven wonders of Ancient World and more than 5000 years old, the Pyramid of Giza in Egypt is one of the greatest architectural feats ever created by human being. Apart from Pyramid of Giza you can also explore Pyramid of Kafhre and the smaller Pyramid of Menkaura.
The Omo River area in Ethiopia is home to more than 50 tribes. The area is a gem for people interested in learning new cultures and people. Additionally you can also enjoy white-water rafting.
With its rich past and breathtaking beaches, Zanzibar is also a must visit place in Africa. The UNESCO World Heritage site listed Stone Town treats history buffs with gorgeous ancient houses, slender alleyways, a Sultan's palace and several mosques.
People who love nature should never miss the city of Cape Town in South Africa. The city is known for superb beaches and the imposing Table Mountain. For some heart-pleasing shopping and dining, head to the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront .
Other destinations like Djenne in Mali, Marrakech in Morocco and activities like hot balloon ride of the Masai Mara in Kenya, and gorilla exploring in Virunga Mountains Uganda are equally irresistible.
