The Gate to The East Indonesia

Makassar is the largest city in eastern Indonesia and the capital city of South Sulawesi province. Makassar enjoys a central location in the Indonesian archipelago and is Indonesia’s busy air hub, connecting Sumatra, Java, Bali and Kalimantan in the west with Sulawesi, the Moluccas and Papua in the east. The city of Makassar is a bustling cosmopolitan town, home to a diverse ethnic group that was once called Ujung Pandang.Attractions in the heart of Makassar range from historical sites, boardwalk waterfront, a plethora of culinary treats and architectural landmarks. Fort Rotterdam is the first spot that you may want to visit for an overview of Makassar’s history. A well-preserved bastion from the Gowa Sultanate, dated back to the 17th century. Losari Beach is where people flock during just around sunset to enjoy the afternoon cool breeze at the waterfront. Here, you can easily find local snacks like Pisang Epe, made from banana and chocolate. Another iconic dessert iconic to this city is called Es Pisang Ijo. A banana wrapped in thin green dough, shaved ice, some syrup and sweetened condensed milk.

The Call of Nature

If you love iconic architecture, you will want to see the Amirul Mukminin Mosque. A floating mosque in the eastern of Losari beach, completed with a double blue dome, three storeys and can house around 500 people. Makassar is the Gateway to East Indonesia, as well as the entry point to an adventurous tour to the Tana Toraja highlands, where awesome mountain scenery and the unique rituals of the Toraja people awaits. Just a mere 50 km from the city, Bantimurung Bulusaraung National Park will greet you with its stunning waterfall and hordes of enchanting butterflies. In this park, you can also splurge for adventurous activities, such as trekking, hiking and exploring the karst areas in its western area. Rammang-rammang lake is where to find a peaceful contemplation within nature. The name itself means “haze or clouds”, because of how this place is usually covered by the soft layers.
