Beautiful Zimbabwe!
Most of Zimbabwe is a high, rolling plateau. The land is largely veld, or grassland, with shrub trees. The Zambezi River flows between Zambia and Zimbabwe in the north, and the Limpopa River forms Zimbabwe’s southern border with South Africa.
Zimbabwe has rich farmland, on which tobacco, sugarcane, cotton, and corn are grown. Beef cattle are raised on the veld. The country has rich mineral resources, including gold, copper, coal, chrome, nickel, and asbestos. As is shown by the massive stone ruins of Great Zimbabwe, people have settled in this part of Africa since ancient times.
Zimbabwe is a landlocked country located on southern Africa’s Great Plateau. Covering 150,803 square miles. The highest mountain is Inyangani (8,502 feet or 2,592 meters). On both sides of the Highveld lies the Middleveld, which sends water from the Highveld into the Zambezi River (north) and the Limpopa River (south). Lush forests of the Eastern Highlands run along the border with Mozambique. Winter (May to August) highs average 55 to 73F (13 to 23C) and summer (November-March) highs range from 77 to 86F (25 to 30C). Summer is the rainy seasons.
