Reigning Miss Universe, Sheynnis Palacios of Nicaragua, has been deeply moved by the stunning beauty of Zimbabwe, particularly the majestic Victoria Falls. Following her crowning moment and world tour to promote her platform, Palacios’s visit to Zimbabwe has been a highlight of her travels.
The iconic Victoria Falls, known for its dramatic cascade and mist-filled gorge, left an indelible mark on Palacios. “Hello Zimbabwe, hello universe. I’m Sheynnis Palacios, Miss Universe 2023, and I’m so happy to be here in Victoria Falls,” she shared, capturing her awe and excitement about the landmark.
The visit is seen as a significant endorsement for Zimbabwe’s tourism and global image. Ms. Zodwa Mnkandla, a board member of Miss Universe Zimbabwe, highlighted the positive impact of such high-profile visits. “So many negative narratives have circulated about Zimbabwe, propagated by those who don’t appreciate our country. Miss Universe’s presence here demonstrates that Zimbabwe is a welcoming and liberal nation, a place where everyone can feel free and appreciated.”
Colonel Miniyothabo Baloyi Chiwenga, chairperson of the Miss Universe Zimbabwe board, emphasized the value of Palacios’s visit for Zimbabwe’s international reputation. “Miss Universe World is a major brand with a substantial following—6 million on their main page and 14 million on related pages. Her visit puts Zimbabwe in the spotlight, presenting a great opportunity to showcase our country to millions worldwide.”
Zimbabwe has increasingly attracted notable figures and celebrities to highlight its tourism potential. Recent high-profile visitors include Aston Villa Captain John McGinn and American chef and TV personality Carla Hall, reinforcing the country’s growing appeal as a travel destination. Palacios’s visit to Victoria Falls is a testament to Zimbabwe’s allure and the country’s potential to shine on the global stage.
