Padangpanjang

Padang Panjang is a city located at 0°27′S 100°25′E in the highlands of West Sumatra, around 70 km inland from the provincial capital Padang. It sits on a plateau beneath the volcanoes Mount Marapi and Mount Singgalang, thus creating cooler temperatures. It was a popular tourist destination during Dutch rule in Indonesia, and it later became one of the centres of Islamic education in Sumatra.
