Browse Hotels in Pontianak →Pontianak, a charming city in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, is a must-visit destination for its unique blend of traditional and modern charm. The city's standout attraction is the iconic Pontianak Grand Mosque, one of the largest mosques in Indonesia, which features stunning architecture and intricate design. One unique thing that travellers love about Pontianak is the opportunity to experience the traditional Dayak culture, where visitors can witness the vibrant Batu Sambai festival, a celebration of music, dance, and traditional performances. The best time to visit Pontianak is during the dry season from May to September, when the weather is warm and sunny. For first-timers, it's practical to hire a local guide to navigate the city's narrow streets and discover hidden gems, such as the traditional Dayak villages and the bustling Pasar Terapung, a floating market on the Kapuas River.
