Livingstone is a city capital of the Southern Province of Zambia about10 km from Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River. Its population is 97,000 (2002, www.citypopulation.de). The city sprang up after the Victoria Falls Bridge was constructed in 1904, and was named in honour of David Livingstone, the first European to explore the region. In 1911, Livingstone became the capital of the British colony of Northern Rhodesia, succeeding Kalomo, until the seat of government was finally moved to Lusaka in 1935. The Victoria Falls Bridge spans the Zambezi downstream from the waterfall and provides one of the chief border crossings between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Livingstone is also connected to Lusaka by road and has grown around the railway, which still runs to Kitwe via Lusaka. The Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park adjoins the city and covers 66 km˛ and attracts large contingents of tourists who come each year to view its wildlife - elephants, giraffes, hippopotamuses, and the only white rhinoceroses in Zambia.
Other attractions in the town include Railway Museum and the Victoria Falls Field Museum, a crocodile park, river cruises on the Zambezi, craft markets, an aquarium, an international airport and a golf course.
