Pamekasan, Administrative region in East Java, Indonesia

Pamekasan Regency spans 792 square kilometers on Madura Island, encompassing thirteen districts with a population surpassing 880,000 residents in 2023.

The region developed from an agricultural society in the 15th century, when bull racing emerged as a response to farming needs in less fertile soil.

Traditional Batik production in Proppo village displays specific patterns and techniques that differentiate Pamekasan textiles from other Madurese regions.

The regency connects to major routes through road networks linking Madura Island with Java, facilitating commerce between Surabaya and smaller towns.

Annual bull racing championships progress from district competitions to the final event in Pamekasan, where participants compete for the President's Cup.
