Can you imagine taking your work to an amusement park — sending important mails and holding Zoom calls from atop a Ferris wheel? Well, if you are living in Japan, this could be your reality. Yomiuriland, a theme park in Tokyo, is ingeniously trying to boost tourism by selling day passes to people who are looking for some interesting places to work remotely.

According to CNN, people will be able to work remotely in the theme park October 15 onwards, as part of its ‘Amusement Workation’ package. They are required to pay 1,900 yen (Rs 1,312.56) for one person and 3,600 yen (Rs 2,486.96) for a pair. Guests can set up a working space in a poolside work booth, which is believed to be complete with table, chairs — both the ones found in offices and of deck variety — and WiFi.
