Workation in Gelephu: the essentials
Forget the Himalayan image: Gelephu lies on the southern plains of Bhutan, right on the Indian border, and is hot and green, far from anything alpine. It is a modest border market town of just under 10,000 people (2017) and one of the country's few road entry points from India. What puts it on the map is Gelephu Mindfulness City, a planned economic hub and special administrative region with its own legal framework, meant to cover 2,500 square kilometres. Much of that is still on paper, so expect a small town and not a finished city. The local airport, about 3 km from town, has so far handled domestic flights.
