Cianjur Regency

Cianjur Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Cianjur, pronounced [kabuˌpat̪ɛn t͡ʃiˈaɲd͡ʒʊr]; Sundanese: Kabupatén Cianjur) is a regency (kabupaten) of West Java, Indonesia. The area of the regency is 3,614.38 km2 and its population at the 2010 Census was 2,171,281; the 2020 Census produced a total of 2,477,560 and the official estimate published by the regency government as at 2025 was 2,610,316 (comprising 1,333,933 males and 1,276,383 females). The town (district) of Cianjur is its seat.

Northern parts of the regency form a valley (above the 'neck' or narrowest part of the regency), and are far more densely populated than southern regions, with 68.4% of the regency's population in just 30.0% of its area. As such, a portion of the northern valley (consisting of Cugenang, Pacet, Sukaresmi and Cipanas Districts in the far northwest of the regency) was briefly included in a definition of Greater Jakarta called Jabodetabekjur (with the "jur" standing for Cianjur).

Cianjur Kota Manjur is divided into thirty-two districts (kecamatan), listed below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 and 2020 Censuses, together with the official estimates as at 2025. The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of villages in each district (totaling 354 rural desa and 6 urban kelurahan), and its post code.

(A) Districts south of the "neck"

(B) Districts north of the "neck"

Notes: (a) these 4 districts for a while formed part of the defined metropolitan district of Jabodetabekjur. (b) except the village of Ciputri, which has a post code of 43281.
Of the 360 villages, 354 are rural desa, while 6 are urban kelurahan (Bojongherang, Muka, Pamoyanan, Sawah Gede, Sayang and Solokpandan), which are all part of Cianjur (town) District (kecamatan).

A terracing structure, although local people mention it as a pyramid, lies on Mount Padang, 31 kilometer from Cianjur through Warung Kondang. It is the biggest Megalithic Site in Southeast Asia.

Mount Kendeng is located at 6°46′05″S 106°31′34″E / 6.768°S 106.526°E / -6.768; 106.526 on the border between Bandung Regency and Cianjur Regency. It is one of three pronounced peaks of the caldera, along with Mount Batu at 1,816 m (5,958 ft) and Mount Malang at 1,796 m (5,892 ft). Mount Kendeng reaches 1,732 m (5,682 ft).
