==========================================
Great Zimbabwe is an ancient city in the south-eastern hills of Zimbabwe near Lake Mutirikwe and the town of Masvingo.
It was the capital of the Kingdom of Zimbabwe during the country's Late Iron Age.
Construction on the monument began in the 11th century and continued until the 15th century.
The most widely-accepted modern archaeological theory is that the edifices were erected by the ancestral Shona.
The stone city spans an area of 722 hectares (1,780 acres) which, at its peak, could have housed up to 18,000 people.
It is recognised as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Great Zimbabwe is believed to have served as a royal palace for the local monarch.
As such, it would have been used as the seat of political power.
Among the edifice's most prominent features were its walls, some of which were over five metres high.
They were constructed without mortar (dry stone).
Eventually, the city was abandoned and fell into ruin.
The earliest known written mention of the Great Zimbabwe ruins was in 1531 by Vicente Pegado, captain of the Portuguese garrison of Sofala, who recorded it as Symbaoe.
The first confirmed visits by Europeans were in the late 19th century, with investigations of the site starting in 1871.
Later, studies of the monument were controversial in the archaeological world, with political pressure being put upon archaeologists by the government of Rhodesia to deny its construction by native African people.
Great Zimbabwe has since been adopted as a national monument by the Zimbabwean government, and the modern independent state was named for it.
The word great distinguishes the site from the many hundreds of small ruins, now known as zimbabwes, spread across the Zimbabwe Highveld.
There are 200 such sites in southern Africa, such as Bumbusi in Zimbabwe and Manyikeni in Mozambique, with monumental, mortarless walls; Great Zimbabwe is the largest of these.
Zimbabwe is the Shona name of the ruins, first recorded in 1531 by Vicente Pegado, Captain of the Portuguese Garrison of Sofala.
Pegado noted that The natives of the country call these edifices Symbaoe, which according to their language signifies 'court'.

Ep7|S1| A realistic Game drive in Mutirikwi Recreational Park, Masvingo| Zim Vlog|Zimbabwean Youtube
All you need to know before visiting Mutirikwi (Kyle) Recreational Park (which is another Zimbabwe travel destination in Masvingo) is shared in this vlog by a Zimbabwean Travel Youtuber.
Spotting wild animals in a game park is one of the most difficult things to do as most animals are skeptical of humans due to poaching. The way I loooove White Rhinos though, there is no way I was going to visit a game park with White Rhinos & not do everything I possibly can to see them. I almost cried when the odds seemed to be against us, until we decided to do one last drive around a certain section of the park & Boom! there they were☺️. Of course I also wanted to see Lake Mutirikwi, the 3rd largest in the country after Kariba Dam & Tokwe Mukosi Dam... So all that, cost breakdown & more in the video.

Sunway Safaris Great Zimbabwe Monuments
Sunway Safaris visit the Great Zimbabwe Monuments in Southern Zimbabwe near the town of Masvingo. We take a guided walk through the ancient structures, as part of our Zimbabwe and Botswana small group wildlife tours.
Construction of the monument started in the 11th century and continued for over 300 years spanning an area of over 700 hectares. The property is divided into 3 groups the Hill Ruins, Great Enclosure and Valley Ruins. The Hill Ruins is considered to be the ‘Royal City’ where the chief and his warriors lived, this complex was built in a defensive view with narrow corridors which could be defended by one warrior and easily defendable rooms. Six steatite upright posts topped with birds have been found these were considered to serve as a ritual purpose. The Great Enclosure comprise of huts built within stone enclosure walls, which marked off each families area. The Valley Ruins a series of living ensembles scattered throughout the valley dating back to the 19th century. With each ensemble having similar characteristics, many of these constructions are built in brick and drystone walls.
Research has shown Great Zimbabwe was a principal city of a major state extending over the gold-rich plateaux with its population exceeding 10 000 inhabitants. The capital was abandoned in about 1450 after the hinterland could no longer furnish food for the overpopulated city.
Great Zimbabwe - An Almost Impossible Feat of Architecture Not to Be Missed While in Zimbabwe!
In today's episode we explore the most famous monument in Zimbabwe, the ruins, also known as Great Zimbabwe. We talk about the history of this mysterious place that was built using only bricks with nothing to stick them together, similar to Machu Picchu. We came very early in the morning so we were the only visitors for hours until we were bombarded by a group of tourists asking for our photos. It was incredible to see this early feat of architecture and imagine what it used to be like living there.

Khami is a ruined city located 22 kilometres west of Bulawayo, in Zimbabwe.
It was once the capital of the Kingdom of Butua of the Torwa dynasty.
It is now a national monument, and became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986.
Khami was the capital of the Torwa dynasty for about 200 years from around 1450 and appears to have been founded at the time of the disappearance of the state at Great Zimbabwe.
After that (the traditional date is 1683), it was ransacked by Changamire Dombo who led an army of Rozvi rebels from the Mwenemutapa State.
Excavations seem to show that the site was not occupied after these Rozvi took over.
The Rozvi made another Khami phase site, Danamombe (Dhlo-Dhlo), their new capital.
In the 1830s Nguni speaking Ndebele raiders displaced them from Khami and many of the other sites they had established.
The settlement that we see today was a development of the architectural form that emerged at Great Zimbabwe in the 13th century AD and a local Leopard's Kopje culture that built platforms of rough walling on which houses would be constructed.
Khami marks an innovation that recognised the environment in which was built.
The site of Khami reveals seven built-up areas occupied by the royal family with open areas in the valley occupied by the commoners.
The complex comprises circular, sometimes terraced, artificial platforms encased by dry stone walls.
The beautifully decorated 6 metres high by 68 metres long retaining wall of the precipice platform bears a checkerboard design along its entire length.
The platforms, rising 2 to 7 metres above the ground, carried dhaka (clay) huts and courtyards where those of lower status lived.
The remnants of cattle kraals and huts for ordinary people can be seen below the Hill Complex.
The ruins include a royal enclosure or Hill Complex, which had to be on higher ground than other buildings, stone walls and hut platforms, and also a Christian cross believed to have been placed by a contemporary missionary.
There are also ruins on the eastern side of the Khami River.
Other platforms are believed to have been cattle kraals and a retaining wall with a chequered pattern.
Recent excavations (2000–2006) have revealed that the walls of the western parts of the Hill Complex were all decorated in chequer, herringbone, cord, as well as variegated stone blocks.
