1. Ampera Bridge – Palembang’s most iconic landmark is not just a place to view pretty lights at night. Built in 1962, this 224-meter (0.13 mile) vertical-lift bridge is the main link between the north and south banks. As a result of engineering mishaps, the bridge can no longer be opened to allow ships to pass underneath. Despite this, the bridge still retains much of its original architectural beauty.

In the vicinity of the bridge are markets, souvenir shops, and food stalls where visitors can sample local cuisine.

Visitors can choose from motor boats, speed boats, small boats or keteks to view the majestic sunset by the river. While cruising the river, you might see some peculiar attractions such as a floating restaurant and an Arab village.
3. Kemaro Island - This mystical island is located on a delta of the Musi River, around 6 kilometres (3.7 miles) from the Ampera Bridge. With its towering nine-level pagoda, it’s hard to miss when you’re cruising down the river. According to the locals, the graves of Prince Tan Bun An of China and Princess Siti Fatimah of Sriwijaya can be found on the island. Despite their tragic end, the two royals had a love story that inspired many Palembang residents through the ages.
