Equator Monument
Grown from a simple marker in 1928 into a goofy collage of circles and arrows with a huge replica outside marking its spot, Patung Khatulistiwa or Equator Monument makes much - too much - of Pontianak's geographical draw. It draws crowds every equinox to experience shadowless sunlight.
Take a bis kota (intercity bus) from outside Kartika Hotel or an opelet (local minivan) from Siantan terminal heading northwest. Patung Khatulistiwa is alongside the highway, and, believe us, you can't miss it.
