A Glimpse into History: Pangkalanbuun’s Rich Heritage

Pangkalanbuun is the gateway to the wonders of Tanjung Puting National Park and holds its own historical charm. The town itself has a rich cultural tapestry, and visitors can explore local museums that showcase the history and traditional lifestyles of the indigenous Dayak people. A significant landmark in the area is Istana Kuning, a historical palace constructed during the Dutch colonial era – a symbol of a bygone era wrapped in the lively spirit of modern Indonesia.
