Introducing Banjarmasin

Kalimantan’s largest and most beguiling city rests gingerly over a labyrinth of canals, its taped-together mosques and houses perched on stilts or bundles of floating logs, and its residents up to their floorboards in water. Beyond, Banjarmasin’s terra firma is a furore of traffic and trade, but the façade is wafer thin and the city’s charm will envelop you quicker than the dust kicked up by the two-millionth ojek. A spread of attractions in and around the city can occupy several days, and absorbing Kalimantan’s best urban culture in the markets both on and offshore is a must.
