Banjarbaru, Administrative city in South Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Banjarbaru encompasses five districts at the foot of Meratus Mountains, with elevations ranging from sea level to 500 meters above.
The Indonesian government established Banjarbaru in 1975 to reduce population density in Banjarmasin, leading to its designation as provincial capital in 2022.
The population includes Banjarese, Javanese, and Dayak communities, with traditional music performances featuring Panting instruments and Kentung compositions.
The Syamsudin Noor International Airport connects Banjarbaru with major Indonesian cities through regular domestic flights and transportation networks.
Diamond mining in the Cempaka district dates to the 15th century, when royal edicts required gems over four carats to be sold to the sultan.
