Enye yezona ndawo ezithandekayo kunye nezolisayo kwiKenya yiNtshonalanga yaseM Thompson. Le ntle yamanzi i-cascade ithathwa njengowona mkhulu kwi-East Africa kunye nenye yezona zikhulu kwilizwekazi lonke lase-Afrika.
Imbali yokufumanisa
Umfuphi wokuqala weNtshonalanga yeKhompson ngumhloli waseScotland uJoseph Thompson. Lo ngumntu wokuqala waseYurophu oye wakwazi ukunqoba umendo onzima ukusuka eMombasa ukuya eLake Victoria . Ngethuba lohambo ngowe-1883, i-geologist kunye nomvelo wendalo babona kuqala le nkomo yamanzi yaseKenya baza bathiwa nguyise.
Iimpawu zempompo
Impompo ka Thompson ephawulekayo yinxalenye yomlambo we-Iwaso Nyiro, owela kwi-Aberdan ridge. Impompo iphakamileyo yamanqanaba angama-2360 ngamanqanaba angaphezu kolwandle, kwaye ukuphakama kwayo kunamitha angama-70.
Intaba yamanzi ka Thompson iyona "isondlo" seentsapho ezininzi kwisixeko saseNyahururu. Amalungu amaninzi eentsapho zengingqi asebenza njengesikhokelo, abaguquleli okanye abathengisi kwiivenkile zokukhumbula, yoko kutyelelo abahlala bamukelekile apha. Kananjalo, abatyeleli bafika kwiNtshonalanga yaseM Thompson ukuze:
- Jabulela ubuhle be-Aberdare Park ;
- ukugcina ukuhamba kwamanzi empompo;
- wehla enyaweni yamanzi;
- Khangela inani elikhulu lamavubu ahlala ngaphesheya kweeNtshonalanga zikaT Thompson.
Iimpawu ezihle kakhulu ezintle zaseM Thompson zifakwe kwifilimu ye-Alan Grint "Abaphenyi baka-Agatha Christie: I-Gentleman eBrown" (1988). Akukude nommandla ophawulekayo yiThomson Falls Lodge, eyayihlala kwindawo yokuhlala yangasese, kwaye kamva yavula izivakashi.
Endleleni eya kwiNtshonalanga yakwaT Thompson, unokufumana iindawo ezininzi zeentengiso apho ungathenga khona imithandazo eneemifanekiso ezikhangayo, kunye nemveliso eyenziwe ngamatye kunye namatye.
Ndingafika njani?
Impophoma yaseKenya eKenya ifumaneka kwisixeko saseNyahururu kwisiqithi saseLakipia. Ukufikelela kuyo kulula ukusuka kwisixeko saseNakuru , esise-65 km. Ababhenkethi abacetyiswa ukuba baye emanzini yamanzi, njengokuba kukho ithuba elihle lokudibana nabaphangi basekhaya.
