Workation in Bulawayo: the essentials
The avenues of Bulawayo were laid out wide enough to turn an ox wagon, and Zimbabwe's second city still feels spacious and a little frozen in time. It began around 1840 as the royal settlement of the Ndebele king Mzilikazi, later became the country's railway hub, and has a natural history museum and a railway museum worth the visit. The granite hills of Matobo National Park, a UNESCO site with rock paintings, lie to the south. Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport is about 24 km out. Water shortages and power cuts shape daily life, so plan around outages. After Zimbabwe's repeated currency changes, expect to pay in US dollars.
