Why visit Pekanbaru
Few destinations in Indonesia match the dynamic energy of Pekanbaru. Pekanbaru ([pəkanˈbaru]) is the capital city of the Indonesian province of Riau, and a major economic center on the eastern side of Sumatra Island with its name derived from the Malay (Indonesian) word for 'new market' ('pekan' is market and 'baru' is new). It has an area of 632.26 km2 (244.12 sq mi), with a population of 897,767 at the 2010 Census, and 983,356 at the 2020 Census; the official estimate as of mid-2024 was 1,167,599 (comprising 586,917 males and 580,682 females). A blend of traditional craftsmanship and forward-thinking development makes this city a compelling stop on any travel itinerary.
