Sawahlunto is a city in the province of West Sumatra in Indonesia. Indonesia treats it as a city (kota) at the regency level, and the figures compiled by City Population count 65,138 inhabitants at the 2020 census, against 56,866 at the 2010 census. GeoNames places Sawahlunto at latitude -0.67483 and longitude 100.80715, about 322 metres above sea level by its digital elevation model, in the Asia/Jakarta time zone of the IANA database, which is UTC+7.
