Sanggau, Administrative regency in West Kalimantan, Indonesia.

The Sanggau Regency extends across 14,999 square kilometers of land, containing fifteen distinct districts including Balai, Beduai, Bonti, and Entikong.

Before the establishment of modern administrative divisions, Sanggau developed from a small trading port connecting various islands across the Indonesian archipelago.

The regency population combines Malay, Chinese, and Dayak communities, each maintaining their traditional practices in agriculture and crafts.

The capital city Kapuas serves as the main transportation hub, connecting the regency through river networks and the cross-Kalimantan road system.

Located at 93 meters above sea level, the region contains extensive networks of rivers, including the substantial Kapuas River measuring 600 kilometers in length.
