Itinerary
-
A Day In Pontianak
- Pick-up service at any hotel in Pontianak at 7 am after breakfast (flexible). The tour will proceed to the traditional market in town, Pasar Flamboyant. This place offers a view of traditional markets of the local community selling staple food, jungle products, vegetable fish, meat, poultry products, and spices.
- The second destination is the Kadriyah Palace and the Grand Mosque Jami of Sultan Alqadry Pontianak. These are the oldest historical buildings of the Pontianak Civilization.
- Continue to the major landmark of Pontianak Equator Monument. It is situated near the Palace of the Sultan. This place is not only a major landmark but also a natural phenomenon. These are mere landmarks and natural phenomena that occur here, twice a year when the sun circulates right above the equator. From March 21st-23rd and September 21st-23rd, between 11:45 a.m. - 11:50 a.m., all objects that stand tall will disappear as long as the sun is right above them.
- Head to Sungai Pinyuh, a small town where a stop will be made to taste Chinese coffee. Taste traditional Chinese coffee served with “Pengkang”, which is traditionally cooked with sticky rice and grated coconut with dried shrimp (Ebi).
- Proceed to Galang Village, 3 km after the Sungai Pinyuh. Experience the pineapple harvest and enjoy fresh fruits, sometimes rambutan. Most of the villagers here are farmers. This harvest is not to be missed. Maybe it will be an unforgettable memory, seeing a pineapple harvest and eating your own fresh pineapple from the plantations!
- Stop at the historical building of Mandor, the Struggling Monument of the Second World War. 21 thousand were recorded as victims, and 7 thousand were killed by the Japanese between 1942 to 1945. There are 10 mass graveyards, about 1.5 km from the main road. 28 June is annually celebrated as the Mourning Day of West Kalimantan.
- See Sehak Hills, a place that offers plenty of green area on the hillside, a place for launch that offers scenic views of the villages and their surroundings.
