The second-largest city in Indonesia, Surabaya is the capital of the province of East Java. Situated on the northeastern shore of Java where the Mas River spills into the sea, Surabaya has a longstanding maritime reputation and continues to operate an important harbour. Central to the Indonesian War of Independence, Surabaya is often referred to as the “City of Heroes".
Surabaya fosters a thriving outdoor scene, with several premier golf courses and other green spaces within short distance of the city centre. Children enjoy daytrips to the local zoo where you can view exotic African wildlife side-by-side Indonesia’s indigenous animal species. Meanwhile, Ciputra Water Park is an outstanding place for the family to cool off during Indonesia’s hot summer days.
Surabaya’s main sightseeing attractions relate to the entire archipelago’s unique history. The Grahadi Building, now used as the governor's secondary residence, is central to the city's layout, though there are numerous other Dutch Colonial houses in or near the city centre. Meanwhile, many of the local monuments (such as Heroes Monument) pay tribute to the military feats accomplished in the 1940s at the dawn of Indonesian independence.
Surabaya’s bustling Juanda Airport (SUB) is located 17 kilometres outside of the city centre. Flights connect passengers with Taipei, Hong Kong, Bandar Seri Begawan, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. Connections to Europe are more limited, though there are semi-regular flights to Amsterdam. Otherwise, passengers arriving from Europe are likely to be routed first through Jakarta, where Indonesia’s discount domestic carrier (Indonesia AirAsia) is headquartered.
