Workation in Kitwe: the essentials
Zambia's second-largest city, with about 660,000 people, grew up around the Nkana copper mines, whose works still line its western and northwestern edges. Kitwe is a commercial and industrial place rather than a visitor destination, home to Copperbelt University, with established suburbs such as Parklands and Nkana East alongside large townships like Chimwemwe and Wusakile. Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport at Ndola is about 50 km away. Drought has strained Zambia's hydropower in recent years, so plan for outages and a backup connection.
