Ogan Komering Ulu

Ogan Komering Ulu is an administrative region in South Sumatra with gently rolling terrain and a network of thirteen districts. The city of Baturaja serves as the administrative center that coordinates activities across all these communities.

The territory took its current form after administrative reforms in 2003, when larger portions were separated. This division created the neighboring East and South Ogan Komering Ulu regions and established the present-day boundaries.

The Harimau Cave in Padangbindu holds geometric patterns carved into its walls by ancient inhabitants. Visitors can observe artifacts displayed there that reveal how people lived in this region thousands of years ago.

The region is easily accessible with basic infrastructure centered around Baturaja. Visitors should prepare for tropical conditions and allow time to reach local caves and natural sites scattered across the area.

The Putri Cave near Baturaja contains a water-filled chamber with archaeological findings from different periods. This submerged underground formation makes the site a rare geological feature in the region.
