The Bahtang House (span) was inaugurated on 27 April 1996 by the Regent of Sambas at that time. At that time Singkawang and Bengkayang were still in the same area as Sambas Regency. The span house is a place for religious ceremonies and traditional ceremonial events when the harvest season arrives. The position of the span house is at the foot of the hill and around it looks a vast expanse of rice fields and behind it there are large trees that provide its own natural feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before heading to the span house, on the left side of the road, you are presented with a view of a small pond and a statue of Nek Ramaga. According to history, Nek Ramaga was one of the community leaders who lived in a village called Pakana Bahana, upstream of the Mempawah River. He lives as a forest gatherer and was appointed as a leader by the villagers. Because of its sacredness, the statue of Nek Ramaga was given a small jar, as a place for offerings for Dayak <\/a>residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
