Although Sulawesi looks like an octopus after multiple amputations, there's nothing the island lacks. Quite the opposite, the range of activities and sights is so abundant that Sulawesi might share them with several other islands. The only problem, due to Sulawesi bizarre shape, is transportation between the places. It is either cheap but long (buses and ferries) or quick but more expensive (airplanes).
Sulawesi is considered off-the-beaten-track destination in Indonesia, but it isn't wholly true. Some parts of Sulawesi are very popular among travelers, and you'd better deal with it. And, as the most crowded destinations are at the same time the most fascinating ones, don't even think about skipping them. Here we should mention Toraja Land, where the chances of meeting your neighbor from a hotel in Bali are the greatest.
But indulging in Toraja culture is only one of many things to do in Sulawesi. There are also the beautiful coral reefs to dive among, jungles and national parks to explore, volcanos to climb... You name it, Sulawesi has it all!

Batutumonga, Toraja

Batutumonga is a village located in Northern Toraja Land. But it's not just any village. It's a masterpiece among the most scenic places in the world.

Kete Kesu, Toraja
Kete Kesu Village is not only one of the oldest (dating back more than 300 years) but also one of the most beautiful village settlements in Tana Toraja. It was nominated as a UNESCO Heritage Site and definitely is one of the places you can't miss on your trip to Toraja Land.
Bukit Kasih near Manado
Bukit Kasih ("Hill of Love") near Manado is a very strange place. It is a crossing between the sanatorium (plenty of basins with sulfur water for soaking weary legs) and the interfaith pilgrimage destination.
Lemo, Toraja
If there ever was a single picture that inspired you to visit Tana Toraja, we are sure it was taken in Lemo, as the spectacular Lemo burial cliff is considered symbolic for Toraja. And not without reason.
Bolu Market, Toraja
Bolu marked is on the bucket lists of most travelers going to Tana Toraja. The bulls are the primary focus here but don't miss other attractions like Marante Village.
