  • The Statue of David Livingstone on the Zimbabwe side of the Victoria Falls is erected towards in the western bank of the falls. The statue has an inscription that states that David Livingstone visited the falls in 1851 when he documented his first impression on the beauty of the waterfalls during his first encounter when he named the falls after Queen Victoria. There has been two failed attempts to remove the statue, first attempt was in 2001 by Zimbabwe's liberation war veterans who regarded the artwork as a painful reminder of the British colonial era, and the second attempt was by the Zambian government in 2004, the government wanted the statue moved to the Zambian side of the falls during their 150th anniversary celebrations of the David Livingstone's discovery of the falls.
