Mana Pools
Mana Pools National Park is a 2,196-square-kilometre (848 sq mi) wildlife conservation area and national park in northern Zimbabwe. It is a region of the lower Zambezi in Zimbabwe where the floodplain turns into a broad expanse of lakes after each rainy season. As the lakes gradually dry up and recede, the region attracts many large animals in search of water, making it one of Africa's most renowned game-viewing regions.
The park was inscribed, in conjunction with the Sapi Safari Area (1,180 km2 (460 sq mi)) and Chewore Safari Area (3,390 km2 (1,310 sq mi)), as a single UNESCO World Heritage Site (for a total of 6,766 km2 (2,612 sq mi)) in 1984. The Mana Pools were designated a Ramsar wetland of international importance on 3 January 2013. Mana Pools National Park is a World Heritage Site based on its pure wilderness and beauty. It is home to a wide range of mammals, over 350 bird species, and aquatic wildlife and is one of the world's wildest and best preserved natural ecological areas.
