Pangkalpinang
Indonesia
This coastal provincial capital on Bangka Island's east coast holds a notably diverse religious landscape, with landmarks including the Cathedral of St. Joseph, the Fuk Tet Che Chinese temple, and the Jamik Mosque reflecting the city's mixed Malay and Hakka Chinese heritage. The Rangkui River divides the city, Pasir Padi beach sits nearby, and the Timah Museum documents the tin-mining history that shaped the region. Pangkalpinang also serves as the commercial hub of the Bangka Belitung Islands Province.
