Kumai
Kumai, a port town in Central
Kalimantan, serves as the gateway to Tanjung Puting
National Park, a renowned haven for orangutans. The Kumai
River offers a scenic route to explore this remarkable ecosystem.
Embark on an
orangutan houseboat tour to witness these majestic creatures in their natural
habitat. Visit the Pondok Tanggui Orangutan
Rehabilitation Center for an up-close look at their
rehabilitation efforts. For a deeper understanding of orangutan conservation,
explore Camp Leakey, a renowned research and
conservation center.
While Kumai
itself offers limited shopping options, local markets provide opportunities to
purchase local crafts and fresh produce. Enjoy the serene atmosphere of
riverside cafes and restaurants, perfect for unwinding after a day of
exploration.
