Sukabumi, Administrative city in West Java, Indonesia
Sukabumi spreads across an elevation of 584 meters in the southern foothills of Mount Gede, with temperatures lower than the surrounding lowland areas.
The area, originally named Tjikole, received its current name in 1815 from plantation owner Andries de Wilde during the period of Dutch colonial agricultural development.
The population consists primarily of Sundanese people, with smaller communities of Chinese and Peranakan Chinese residents contributing to the local cultural diversity.
The city connects to major urban centers through railways linking to Bogor and Jakarta, while a new toll road construction expands regional accessibility.
Local industries produce textiles, machinery, and processed foods, while surrounding rubber plantations occupy the hills, forming the backbone of regional trade.
