Serengeti Named Africa's Top National Park Once Again
It is the famous home of hundreds of thousands of the world's most impressive wild animals, where wildebeests, gazelles, zebras, lions, leopards, rhinos and vultures live, hunt or are hunted.
And now the Serengeti in Tanzania has been named Africa's Leading National Park for 2023 at the World Travel Awards.
The World Travel Awards, which began in 1993, gives awards in a number of different categories. This is the fifth time in five years that the Serengeti has won the award for African national parks.
Serengeti National Park is the only place in Africa where large migrations of land animals still take place.
More than a million animals move across the Serengeti to the Masai Mara in Kenya to find fresh food and water.
It is the world's biggest annual migration of animals.
The Masai Mara was also nominated for the award, as well as Kruger National Park in South Africa and others from Botswana and Uganda.
The Serengeti is in the north of Tanzania, close to Kenya and Lake Victoria, and the park is more than 14,700 square kilometers in size.
It is popular with tourists from across the world, although it is not very easy to get to.
Visitors often fly to Kilimanjaro International Airport, which is around 320 kilometers from the park.
However, it is also possible to fly to one of the smaller airstrips inside the national park.
