Manggar Village in East Belitung is not only known as the City of a Thousand Coffee Shops but also as a local cultural center that is rich in historical heritage and traditional wisdom. The culture inherent in this region is a unique blend of local traditions, Malay influences, and traces of colonial civilization.
