Kampar, Administrative region in Riau, Indonesia

Kampar regency extends over 12,481 square kilometers of land, containing twenty-one districts with Bangkinang serving as its administrative center.

The territory underwent significant administrative changes in 1999 when it was divided into three separate regions: Rokan Hulu, Pelalawan, and present-day Kampar.

The Balimau Bakasai tradition and Ma'awuo fishing event represent the local customs of Kampar, where inhabitants speak the Ocu variant of Minangkabau language.

The Kampar River and Siak River systems support transportation networks, fish farms, and agricultural activities throughout the twenty-one districts of the region.

The regency maintains extensive palm oil and rubber plantations, while catfish farming along the Kampar River contributes to the local agricultural production.
