Makassar (Buginese-Makassarese language: ᨀᨚᨈ ᨆᨀᨔᨑ) – sometimes spelled Macassar, Mangkasara’ – is the provincial capital of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, and the largest city on Sulawesi Island. From 1971 to 1999, the city was named Ujung Pandang, after a precolonial fort in the city, and the two names are often used interchangeably. The port city is located on the southwest coast of the island of Sulawesi, facing the Makassar Strait. The city’s area is 175.77 sq km and it had population of around 1.334 million at the 2010 Census. Its official metropolitan area, known as Mamminasata, covers an area of 2,473 km2 and had a population of 2,225,048 at the 2010 Census.
Makassar is home to several prominent landmarks including the 16th century Dutch fort Fort Rotterdam, Trans Studio Makassar-the third largest indoor theme park in the World and the Karebosi Link-the first underground shopping center in Indonesia and the floating mosque located right on the Losari Beach.
