Discover Palembang: A magical journey of Nanyang charm

Discover Palembang: A magical journey of Nanyang charm On the southeast coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, Palembang shines with its unique charm, inviting you to embark on an unforgettable journey. As the origin of the Srivijaya Kingdom, Palembang is full of historical significance. Step into the Great Mosque of Palembang, and you will be greeted by a solemn and sacred atmosphere. The exquisite dome and intricate carvings silently tell the long history of religious culture. The nearby Al-Qur'an Al-Akbar Museum houses precious scriptures and is a treasure trove for exploring Islamic history. At night, the Ampera Bridge looks like a red dragon lying across the Musi River. When the lights are on, the lights and the ripples of the river reflect each other, creating a dreamlike city night scene, which is a favorite of tourists. Due to the crisscrossing waterways in the city, Palembang is known as the "Water City." Take a small boat down the river, shuttle between coconut groves and houses, feel the breeze, and listen to the boatman's humming of Nanyang tunes, which is very pleasant. And the food is not to be missed. Pempek, a specialty snack, is made with fresh fish and unique spices, fried until golden and crispy. Take a bite, and the rich taste dances on your tongue. In addition, there are various dishes cooked with spices, each bite full of rich Nanyang flavor. In Palembang, history, scenery, and food are perfectly integrated to bring you a comprehensive travel experience.
