[ One Photo Per Post ] S U M A T R A : Cityscapes and Skylines
![]() Sumatra is an island in western Indonesia, westernmost of the Sunda Islands. It is the largest island entirely in Indonesia (two larger islands, Borneo and New Guinea, are shared between Indonesia and other countries). The longest axis of the island runs approximately 1,790 km (1,110 mi) northwest–southeast, crossing the equator near the centre. At its widest point the island spans 435 km (270 miles). The interior of the island is dominated by two geographical regions: the Barisan Mountains in the west and swampy plains in the east. Sumatra is the sixth largest island in the world at 473,481 km2 with a population of 50,365,538. Its biggest city is Medan with a population of 2,109,330. 97% of Sumatrans are thought to be Muslim. The island is home to 21% of total population of Indonesia. Sumatra contributed almost 25% of the GDP, an equivalent to US$ 180 Bn. Quote:
