  One of the five first world heritage sites. A place that exhibits genius engineering skills and both for the commoners and the royal family. Great and high levels of security for the royal family is magnificent here ... Visit Masvingo Province and never miss this place ...

  Great Zimabwe is one of the greatest architectural wonders of the world, unfortunately not well known outside of country of Zimbabwe. No photo or description will be able to covey the feeling of awe and admiration felt at the site. Amazingly, people of Medieval shona civilization constructed this city out of "dry stone", without use of any binding material. It is still standing, despite the passage of time and extensive looting. On the day of our visit there were few other tourist and we mostly had ruins for ourselves. There are several good hotels in the vicinity of the site, and the modern town of Maswingo is not too far.

  A must see to understand the Shona tribe and it's heritage. The guides. Stephen has over 25 years experience and so knowledgeable. Walk among the 11th century ruins of the king and his many many wives.

  It's awesome to see nature at its best. Quite a workout to climb up to see some parts. One has to be prepared to walk just over 8km or so to see the whole place There's also some entertainment in some parts like the village It's really a great experience
