2. KEMARO ISLAND
Somewhere in the middle of the Musi River there is an island called "KEMARO ISLAND". The name means that the island never gets flooded even thoug the Musi River gets high tide. From distand island looks like a floating one.

Feeling very regretful on what he had done, he decided to dive and get himself drowned into the river. Seeing this, Siti Fatimah did the same while saying "if a land emerges at the bank of this river, it is the place where I am buried".
On the island lies the Buddhist Temple that is always visited by the Buddhist followers, particularly during the celebration of Cap Go Meh. They are Indonesian Chinese living in Palembang, people from other regions of Indonesia, and even those coming from overseas such as Singapore, Hongkong, China, etc. To get to the island, one can take a ketek, speed boat , cruise ships, and Dragon Boat from the jetty of Benteng Kuto Besak or the one at Intirub factory.
