Workation in Kigali: the essentials

Spread across ridges and valleys near the middle of the country, Kigali began as a German outpost in 1907 and only became Rwanda's capital at independence in 1962. About 1.75 million people live here now. Plastic bags have been banned for years, and on the last Saturday morning of each month traffic stops for the community work day called Umuganda. The Kigali Genocide Memorial is the visit that matters most. Startups and NGOs bring a professional crowd, there is coworking, and the airport is about 10 km out. The steep hills make walking tiring, and many people get around by motorcycle taxi.
