Menara Siger
A golden landmark on a hilltop at Bakauheni Harbour, at the southernmost tip of Sumatra. Its shape is taken from the traditional Lampung wedding headdress.
Menara Siger stands about 32 metres tall. Its golden, nine-tiered design imitates the siger, the traditional wedding headdress worn by Lampung women, and it symbolises the southern gateway to Sumatra. It stands on a hill beside the Bakauheni ferry terminal, which serves ferries to Java. From the top, you can look out over the harbour and the Sunda Strait. It is about 90 km from Bandar Lampung, roughly 1.5 hours by the Trans-Sumatra Toll Road, and makes a good stop when you travel to or from Java by ferry.
