Overview
Why visit Pontianak
Pontianak, situated in Indonesia, has earned its reputation as a bustling destination with deep roots and modern appeal. Pontianak, also known as Khuntien in Teochew and Hakka, is the capital of the Indonesian province of West Kalimantan, founded first as a trading port on the island of Borneo, occupying an area of 118.21 km2 in the delta of the Kapuas River, at a point where it is joined by its major tributary, the Landak River. The city is precisely on the equator, hence it is widely known as Kota Khatulistiwa (Equatorial City). Visitors are drawn to its architectural splendor and the warmth of its people.
