Surabaya, Indonesia's second-largest city, is the capital of East Java and a major commercial center. The city's name comes from the legendary battle between a shark (sura) and a crocodile (baya).

The city played a crucial role in Indonesia's independence struggle, commemorated by the Heroes Monument. Modern Surabaya features the largest shopping centers in Indonesia, including Tunjungan Plaza. The historic Arab Quarter and Chinatown districts preserve the city's multicultural heritage.

Surabaya serves as a major industrial center and port city, with the Tanjung Perak harbor being Indonesia's second-busiest seaport. The city is also home to numerous universities and the historic House of Sampoerna, a cigarette museum and factory.
