Kahayan Bridge
Jembatan Kahayan
A red bridge spanning the Kahayan River. It is the city landmark of Palangka Raya and a great place to watch the sunset.
The Kahayan Bridge, about 640 meters long and opened in 2001, connects the city center with Pahandut Seberang on the opposite bank. Its red bridge deck reflects on the broad river, making it a symbol of the city. At dusk you can watch the sun sink into the Kahayan River from the bridge or from the riverbank below, and at night the bridge is lit up. At the bridge's end are the Soekarno Monument and Pasuk Kameloh Park, so it's best to visit them together along the riverbank in the evening. Traffic on the bridge can be heavy, so take care when taking photos.
