Usually, long boat races are held in rivers or large bodies of water; however this event presents a truly unique sight as the competition in Indragiri Hilir's Sampan Lemper is held on muddy surfaces. This unique event is something that is truly one of a kind, and any visitors to Pekanbaru would be delighted for the opportunity to see it whenever it is available.
