Top Attractions in Banjarmasin
💡 Come for the sunrise—the ferries to the floating market leave from here. Skip mid-afternoon when it's hot and quiet. There's a small entrance fee of 2,000 IDR (less than 15p) to walk through, some locals call it free entry with donation.
💡 Go at dawn or dusk for a quiet visit and a cool breeze off the water. Women must cover their heads and wear long sleeves—borrow a sarong and hijab at the entrance for free.
💡 Pop into one of the small workshops (look for drying strips hanging out front). A quarter-metre offcut costs around 10,000 IDR—makes a cheap souvenir or handkerchief.
💡 Combine with a visit to the nearby floating market—the cemetery is a short walk from Muara Kuin. Dress respectfully (cover shoulders and knees). Locals often leave flowers—don't touch them.
💡 Arrive by 6:00 AM—the market is winding down by 7:30. Hire a kelotok (motorised canoe) from Kampung Kuin; the going rate is around 50,000 IDR per person and you can haggle.
