Description:
Originally completed in 1960, the 282km² Kariba Dam has a wall 128m high and half a mile long and is one of the largest dams in the world. Damming Africa's fourth largest river (the Zambezi River), it provides electricity to Zambia and Zimbabwe and also supports a thriving local fishing industry.
