Workation in Thimphu: the essentials
At roughly 2,250 to 2,650 metres, Thimphu is the highest capital in Asia, strung along the west bank of the Wang Chhu with forested slopes above it. It replaced Punakha as the seat of government in 1955 and is the country's political and economic centre, with its ministries, Tashichho Dzong and the giant Buddha Dordenma on the hill above town. It is Bhutan's largest city yet still small, and police direct the main junction by hand, without traffic lights. Having no airport of its own, it relies on Paro, roughly 50 km away by road. Foreigners stay under Bhutan's entry rules and daily tourism fee, which decide how long a stay can realistically be.
