Okavango Delta
| The Okavango Delta in Botswana is home to some of the largest concentrations of wildlife in Africa and one of the natural wonders of Southern Africa. The Delta is one of the most magnificent places in the world – animals of the savanna and the swamp living side by side. Over 16 000km² of inland waterways have turned the red sands of the Kalahari Desert into a land of plenty. Due to its overwhelming size it can even been seen from space. The actual size of the Delta is depending on rain and the amount of water coming down from neighboring Angola. |
