Cianjur, Administrative region in West Java, Indonesia.

The region spans 3,503 square kilometers and includes both densely populated northern valleys and less populated southern territories within West Java province.

The establishment of Cianjur dates back to 1677 under R. A. Wiratanudatar I, who traced his lineage to the historical Sundanese city of Pajajaran.

The population of 2.4 million residents maintains local traditions through leather crafts, wood products, precious metal works, woven materials, and traditional pottery production.

The district connects to major Indonesian cities through a primary road system, positioned 120 kilometers from Jakarta and 60 kilometers from Bandung.

Mount Padang, located 31 kilometers from Cianjur, contains Southeast Asia's largest megalithic site with extensive terracing structures.
