Traditional Settlement at Nagari Sijunjung (T)
Elisabeth Fransisca Situmorang Indonesia - 24-Oct-17
There are 2 groups of settlements that is actually within the same area of 'tribe village/desa adat'. It is close to Sawah Lunto (another TWHS) so one can visit both in 1 go.
The villages consists of many traditional houses that's very well preserved. They're still in use for real. I happen to visit one of the houses and see the making of their traditional cloth. A 2 hrs visit is already OK to see all.

Elisabeth Fransisca Situmorang Indonesia - 24-Oct-17
The City of Sawah Lunto, around 3-4 hrs from Padang, the capital of West Sumatra, is actually quite a small town. It is an easy day trip starting from Bukittinggi and ending it in Padang (with a close detour to another TWHS, Nagari Sijunjung).
Visited the Goedang Ransum (mass kitchen for the labourer) Museum and one of the Coal Mine. It's really worth to see how the city was alive because of the coal mining exploitation from the Dutch period, how a big deal it was during that time. I must say it is cool experience.

I should say that the culture of the tribe in Tana Toraja is really amazing. And that includes the outstanding story and value on their burial sites.
I was amazed that this settlement is not inscribed yet.
It is a 7 hrs trip by night bus from Makassar, South Sulawesi (nearest airport), but really worth it.
Highly recommended and a must.

Elisabeth Fransisca Situmorang Indonesia - 24-Oct-17
I went to Mt. Kerinci as part of Kerinci Seblat National Park, as part of the series of rainforest and mountain range in Sumatra Island in Indonesia.
The location is quite far from the closest airport. It is 7-8 hrs drive from Minangkabau International Airport in Padang, West Sumatra.
If you are a hiker/mountaineer, it is definitely worth a visit (and hike).

Elisabeth Fransisca Situmorang Indonesia - 11-Oct-16
The scattered sites are located in the town of Mojokerto, around 1.5 hrs drive from the city of Surabaya (East Java). Once could start from the Museum, to get the basic idea of the history of the Kingdom.
Being a huge fan of Indonesian History, these well preserved sites, on top of a good background from the museum guide, really worth the visit.
It is an easy full day trip from Surabaya.
Really recommended
