Ciamis Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Ciamis, Sundanese: {{Sund|ᮊᮘᮥᮕᮒᮦᮔ᮪ ᮎᮤᮃᮙᮤᮞ᮪}}) is a landlocked regency in West Java, Indonesia, and shares a provincial border with Central Java. Its seat is the town of Ciamis, also the primary urban center. Formerly, the regency included the town of Banjar, which was separated out to become an independent city on 11 December 2002; it also included areas bordering the Indian Ocean, but these southern districts were cut off to form a separate Pangandaran Regency on 25 October 2012. The regency now covers 1,597.67 km2, and had a 2020 census population of 1,229,069,Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021.> but the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 1,251,544 (comprising 625,771 males and 625,773 females).Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2024, Kabupaten Ciamis Dalam Angka 2024 (Katalog-BPS 1102001.3207)

Recent changes

Prior to the separation of part of this regency in 2012, it had an area of 2,556.75 km2 and population of 1,528,306 (at the 2010 census); the regency was until 2012 divided into 36 districts. However, as from 25 October 2012, the existing regency has been split, with 10 districts comprising the southern portion being formed into a new Pangandaran Regency in the extreme southeast of the province (with a 2010 census population of 383,848), leaving 26 districts in the residual Ciamis Regency. The reduced Ciamis Regency covers 1,595.94 km2 and the districts comprising it had a population of 1,148,656 at the 2010 census,Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011. which rose to 1,229,069 at the 2020 censusBadan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021. and to an official estimate of 1,251,544 as at mid 2023.Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2024, Kabupaten Ciamis Dalam Angka 2024 (Katalog-BPS 1102001.3207)

Tourist destinations

In 2011 Ciamis Regency was boosting the (new) tourist destinations with an idea of making a new Regency in the southern 10 districts of the regency, where there were already several tourist destinations (e.g. Pangandaran Beach). The separate Pangandaran Regency was split off in 2012.

In the five months up to end of May 2014, Ciamis Regency was only visited by 156,423 domestic tourists and just 3 foreign tourists as a spill-off from Pangandaran Beach. The low count was a significant drop compared to when Pangandaran was still part of Ciamis Regency, because Ciamis Regency until now has not yet arranged affordable tourist sites, mainly for foreign tourists.{{cite web |url=http://jabar.tribunnews.com/2014/06/30/pascapisahnya-pangandaran-wisman-ke-kabupaten-ciamis-anjlok |title=Pascapisahnya Pangandaran, Wisman ke Kabupaten Ciamis Anjlok |date=June 30, 2014}}

A number of artistic and tourist attractions are located in the town of Ciamis Regency.{{cite web |url=https://www.itoel.com/best-places-visit-ciamis// |title=Best Places to Visit in Ciamis |date=June 23, 2018}}

Administrative districts

Prior to the separation of Pangandaran Regency as a separate regency, there were 36 districts (kecamatan) within Ciamis Regency. Six of these districts (Baregbeg, Lumbung, Mangunjaya, Purwadadi, Sindangkasih and Sukamantri) had been created between the censuses of 2000 and 2010.

Following the separation of ten districts (Cigugur, Cijulang, Cimerak, Kalipucang, Langkaplancar, Mangunjaya, Padaherang, Pangandaran, Parigi and Sidamulih) to form the new Pangandaran Regency, the remaining Ciamis Regency was divided into 26 districts (kecamatan), but an additional district (Banjaranyar) was subsequently created by splitting of Banjarsari District. The 27 districts are tabulated below with their areas and their 2010Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011. and 2020 census populations,Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021. together with the official estimates as at mid 2023.Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 28 February 2024, Kabupaten Ciamis Dalam Angka 2024 (Katalog-BPS 1102001.3207) Every district is named after the town which is its administrative centre. The table also includes the number of villages in each district (totaling 258 rural desa and 7 urban kelurahan - the latter all in Ciamis Town District), and its post code.

The first seven of the districts listed below, with a combined area of 483.46 km2 and 310,330 inhabitants in mid 2023, lie to the south and west of Banjar city, whose area (not being administered by the regency) nearly separates these southern districts geographically from the rest of the regency to the north.
