The Barelang Bridge, a chain of six bridges, connects Batam Island to the islands of Rempang, Galang, and Galang Baru via three islets. This engineering marvel, one of Indonesia’s most impressive, has become a symbol of Batam. The first and largest bridge in the chain, formally known as the Tengku Fisabilillah Bridge, is often referred to as the Barelang Bridge, adding a layer of local nomenclature. Spanning the waters with its robust structure, the bridge offers visitors a scenic drive over the sea, providing panoramic views of the surrounding islands and the vast expanse of the ocean.
