Tamalanrea, Administrative district in Makassar City, Indonesia.
Tamalanrea is an administrative district in Makassar City composed of eight urban villages with residential neighborhoods, schools, and coastal areas. The terrain varies in elevation and the district includes both housing developments and commercial zones.
The area began as a village under Maros Regency until 1971, when administrative restructuring incorporated it into Makassar City as a new district. This change redirected its development toward urban growth and modernization.
The district is home to multiple religious communities, with mosques, churches, and a temple serving as gathering places for residents from different backgrounds. This religious diversity shapes daily life and how neighbors interact with one another.
The district is well-equipped with public facilities including schools and religious buildings scattered throughout the neighborhoods. It helps to plan ahead or get local directions, as the area is large and spread out across different elevations.
The district mixes industrial zones with shrimp farming areas, two contrasting economic activities that coexist side by side. This blend shows how the area straddles both modern urban development and traditional coastal farming.
