Sekadau Regency, Administrative regency in West Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Sekadau Regency is an administrative region in West Kalimantan covering a tropical rainforest area divided into several districts. The regency encompasses various communities and settlements distributed across a forested landscape.
The regency was established in 2003 when authorities separated it from the neighboring Sanggau Regency to form an independent administrative entity. This creation established its own governance structure for previously unified territory.
The region shows religious diversity across its communities, with different worship places serving Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, and Confucian residents side by side. This mix shapes daily life and reflects how multiple traditions coexist in the same territory.
The area features tropical vegetation and requires appropriate clothing and preparation for humid conditions. Travelers should use local guides or information centers to find the best routes through the districts.
The territory lies in one of the rainiest regions of the world, with frequent and intense rainfall throughout the year. This wet climate causes the vegetation to grow particularly dense and lush, shaping the landscape's appearance.
