GREAT ZIMBABWE |
The famous ruined city of great Zimbabwe lies about 30 km from Masvingo and is
the countrys premier National Monument. Judging from the ancient iron tools,
ceramics, pottery, gold and carvings discovered in the ruins, it is believed to date from
the 12th - 16th century. The complex covers about 720 hectares with its huge granite
walls, conical towers and fortresses. Tourist facilities are excellent and there are daily
guided tours, a souvenir shop and a Museum containing the archeological artifacts
recovered from the ruins. |
