Workation in Zomba: the essentials

Colonial bungalows and government buildings still mark Zomba, the capital of British Central Africa, then of Nyasaland, and of independent Malawi until 1974, with Parliament staying on until 1994. The city lies in the Shire Highlands at the foot of the Zomba Plateau, whose forests, viewpoints and walking trails are the main reason to come. Chancellor College of the University of Malawi gives it a student population, and the large central market is the daily focus of town. Chileka International Airport near Blantyre is about 75 km away.
