Discovering Livingstone
Livingstone owes its existence to the Victoria Falls. It was named after the missionary and explorer Dr. David Livingstone, the first European to discover the mighty waterfalls. In 1904 a bridge was built, taking the railway across the Zambezi river just below the Falls to what is now Zimbabwe. Livingstone was founded on completion of the bridge in 1905. Today, Livingstone is a compact town with some interesting historical references.The Livingstone Museum, which houses memorabilia related to the founder and his exploration of the region in the 1850s, and the Railway Museum.
