EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the Victoria Falls Hotel, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), as depicted in this photograph from the 1930s. The image showcases the stunning courtyard of this iconic neoclassical building, which stands as a testament to the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era. The Victoria Falls Hotel, with its imposing Doric columns and intricate neoclassical design, is a sight to behold. The columns, reminiscent of ancient Greek architecture, frame the entrance to the courtyard, leading the eye to the lush, verdant garden beyond. The meticulously manicured lawn, dotted with shrubs and grass, creates a serene and tranquil atmosphere, inviting guests to unwind and relax. The courtyard itself is a symphony of greenery and light, with the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees and casting dazzling patterns on the cool, tiled floor. The classical design of the hotel is further accentuated by the elegant fountain at the center of the courtyard, which adds a touch of sophistication and refinement to the scene. This photograph transports us back to a time when travel was an adventure, and luxury was synonymous with the exotic and the unfamiliar. The Victoria Falls Hotel, with its timeless beauty and charm, continues to captivate visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Zimbabwe and Africa as a whole.
