Palangkaraya City

Palangkaraya city is another unique destination you cannot miss in Central Kalimantan. This modern and vibrant city also offers different and meaningful experiences to learn local wisdom with friendly Dayak communities in the city. One of its iconic spots is the Pasuk Kameloh Park. From here you could gaze a panoramic view of the beautiful sunset, a combination of green space with the traditional dome-roofed mosque as typical Palangkaraya architecture. It is also an outdoor cultural park where local urban arts are exhibited and performed. You can enjoy the breezing air and eat delicious dishes by the river.
