Tana Toraja, Indonesia

Marante village

Another recommended village to explore the local traditions and unique culture of the Toraja people. That is Marante village, notable for numerous attractions including Erong, an ancient traditional tombstone on big rocky hills with hanging stone graves, giant rice barns, and Tongkonan in their most authentic form. Once you get to the village, feel the mystical ambiance, engage with the residents, learn their traditional culture and way of living, witness Tongkonan in unique shape and size, and of course, don’t miss out the ancient tombstone with colorful statues of Tau-Tau. Overall, it is worth a visit to Marante village.
