Workation in Parakou: the essentials
Northern Benin's largest city and the country's third largest, Parakou has a little over 200,000 people and serves as capital of the Borgou department. It grew as a trade hub at the end of the railway from Cotonou, on the road that continues towards Niger, and the University of Parakou adds a student population. The Bariba people of the region shape much of its identity, and you can find coworking space here. Parakou Airport is about 3 km out, but most international travellers arrive via Cotonou and continue overland.
