High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Semarang is a city on the north coast of the island of Java, Indonesia. It is the capital of the province of Central Java. It has an area of 225.17 km² and a population of approximately 1.5 million people, making it Indonesia's fifth largest city. Semarang is located at 6°58 S 110°25 E / 6.967°S 110.417°E / -6.967; 110.417. A major port during the Dutch colonial era, and still an important port today, the city has a large ethnically Chinese population. The name of the city, Semarang, may have originated from the concatenation of the words "assam" (tamarind) and "arang" (rare). Another version is that Semarang is originated from Chinese word Sam Po Lang, meaning "the city of Sam Po" (Admiral Zheng He). Semarang's history dates back to the ninth century, when it was known as Bergota. By the end of fifteenth century, a Javanese Islamic missionary from nearby Sultanate of Demak with the name of Kyai Pandan Arang founded a village and an Islamic boarding school in this place.
