Great Zimbabwe National Monument is approximately 30 km from Masvingo
and located in the lowveld at an altitude of some 1100 m in a sparsely
populated region of the Bantu/Shona people. The property, built between
1100 and 1450 AD, extends over almost 800 ha and is divided into three
groups: the Hill Ruins, the Great Enclosure and the Valley Ruins.
