Workation in Huambo: the essentials
High on Angola's central plateau, Huambo was founded by the Portuguese and called Nova Lisboa for much of the colonial period. It is now the country's third-largest city, with about 710,000 people in 2024, and a main stop on the Benguela Railway, which runs from Lobito towards the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The civil war hit Huambo especially hard, and damaged buildings stood for years after it ended in 2002. The altitude brings a milder climate than the Atlantic lowlands, about 220 km to the west at Benguela. Portuguese is the working language. Albano Machado Airport is only about 3 km from the centre.
