Mindful meoweler tips

Discover the Kerinci Seblat National Park

The park is home to tigers, elephants, and other wildlife. Cat travelers must be prepared for a long hike, but the stunning view of the rainforest is worth it!

Try the specialties of Jambi's traditional cuisine

Savor dishes such as Tempoyak, a spicy soup made with fermented durian, and Gulai Paku, made with fern and coconut milk. Meow-licious!

Visit Muaro Jambi Temple Complex

Cat travelers can discover ancient sites of Buddhism and Hinduism dating back to the seventh century. This historic location is packed with cultural significance!

Take a stroll along the Batanghari River

Listen to the fishing boats as they glide along the river. As you trot along the riverbank, you'll catch an incredible view of the town's riverfront.

Meet the local cats

Jambi is home to many cats who love to roam around town. Be sure to visit the local cat shelters and rescue organizations to learn more about their mission!
