"Art gallery right in the Park. Few meters of the Mosi-O-Tunya Road. A stop you cannot afford to miss. Great pieces and a myriad of local artists and sculptures have their pieces on display. Great service from the staff too. Simply a beautiful unexpected beauty amidst all the wonders in Livingstone."
