2- TUGELA FALLS

-

Tugela falls is the second highest waterfall in the world. The total drop in five free-leaping falls is 3,110 ft (948 m). They are located in the Drakensberg (Dragon's Mountains) in the Royal Natal National Park in KwaZulu-Natal Province, Republic of South Africa. 

They are easily viewed after a heavy rain from the main travel road into the park, glistening from the reflection of the late afternoon sun.

 The source of the Tugela River (Zulu for 'sudden') is theMont-Aux-Sources plateau which extends several kilometers beyond The Amphitheatre escarpment from which the falls drop.
