01Landmarks
Dr. Murdjani Field – named after a former governor of the province – is located at the center of the city across from the city hall and city park complex. Previously, the city featured the Haji Idak Stadium, but it was demolished and the site is now used for the new wet market building. As the replacement, a bigger new sport complex named "New Stadium of Banjarbaru" is planned to be built in the Landasan Ulin district. Previously the main wet market in the city was located close to city parks, but it was relocated in early 2021.
Komet Windpump, originally built in 1972 and restored in 2021, was the naming inspiration for the surrounding Komet subdistrict.
