Banyuwangi, Port city in East Java, Indonesia
Banyuwangi extends along the Bali Strait with mountains to the west and encompasses an area of 30 square kilometers at Java's eastern end point.
The former capital of Blambangan Kingdom transformed into a Dutch colonial outpost in the 1700s, marking the end of Hindu rule in Java.
The Osing people maintain their traditions through Gandrung dance performances, which feature female dancers and specific musical instruments during local celebrations.
Travelers can reach the city via Blimbingsari Airport, railway connections from Surabaya, or ferry services crossing the Bali Strait.
The city established communication links with Australia in 1871 through an undersea cable connection to Darwin, supporting the Australian Overland Telegraph Line.
