PADANG
he seaside city of
PADANG
is an
important transport hub for the rest of
Sumatra. Famous for its spicy local

Indonesia at 4508mm a year. For most
travellers, Padang is little more than a

2009, which killed 1300 people, leaving
around one million temporarily
homeless. Some of the damage was
irreversible: more than eighty percent of
