Workation in Gitega: the essentials
Burundi moved its political capital to Gitega in 2019, returning the title to a town that had been the seat of the kingdom until the monarchy ended in 1966. It lies on the central plateau, roughly 62 km east of Bujumbura, which remains the economic centre; Melchior Ndadaye International Airport is about 70 km away. The National Museum and the royal drum sanctuary at Gishora are the main sights. Kirundi and French are the languages of daily life, and foreign remote workers are a rare sight in a town still growing into its role.
