Murchison Falls

　　Murchison Falls, also known as "Victoria Falls," is located in Murchison Falls National Park northwest of Masindi, and the name is derived from the British geologist Roderick Murchison.

　　Murchison Falls cuts deeply through the Victoria Nile River, standing 43 meters high and 7 meters wide, with a flow rate of 300 cubic meters per second, ultimately emptying into Lake Albert. The river water rushes down through a narrow 7-meter-wide Nile channel before plummeting over the 43-meter-high falls. Before the water descends the waterfall, it passes through a 7-meter-deep rock pool, so when the water surges down the falls, the once calm river produces a deafening roar, creating a majestic and awe-inspiring spectacle. The area below the falls is home to Uganda’s largest population of crocodiles, making it the best spot to observe them.
