3.5Fort Rotterdam(970 reviews) - Part of Dutch Colonial History Historic Sites
Big fort from the Dutch colonial history, well restored. Pity that the explanations on panels are only in Indonesian language. Guides offer their services at the entrance, but be aware: the one we had spoke hardly any English and charged 100.000 rupees, far too much. See more..
Largest fortress I’ve ever visit. Very huge so we just like to finish our exercise just explore not even half fortress. A lot of stories sat in many corner of that place. Let alone the ocean view, Canon were amazing we can see how old they were.See more..
5.0Bada Valley(44 reviews) - a must-see in between Rantepao/Toraja and the Togean Islands. Tuesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent More than 3 hours Historic Sites • Ancient Ruins
Noni from the Victory Hotel in Tentena arranged for transport to the remote Bada valley and also got us in touch with a very good local guide to visit the megalith sites. She was also very helpful in finding transport for our onward journey to Ampana and the Togean Islands. All in all, also because of the relaxed surroundings and spacious rooms, a highly recommended place to stay!See more..
3.5Liya Togo Fort(19 reviews) - Old fortress but not well maintain Spent 2-3 hours Historic Sites

Liangkabori Cave turned out to be the unexpected highlight of our first week in Sulawesi Tenggara. This is perhaps the best cave art sight we have seen, up there with Bhimbetka in India. In the main cave there are 130 paintings visible, ranging from a massive ox-like creature to suns, mounted riders, ancestor figures, boats and the oldest depictions of kites on Earth. These vivid scenes are both photogenic and a fascinating window on ancient Sulawesi. There's a second cave higher up the hill. It features one good hunting scene panel but the main attraction for some will be an underground chamber which was used by local mystics for meditation. It is not for the claustrophobic or faint of heart, however. Local kids will show you the way.See more..
5.0House of King Abdul Rabbie(1 review) - Rumah Raja - Sisa sejarah Kebesaran Kerajaan Bungku Masa Lalu Tuesday: 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites
Rumah raja Kerajaan Bungku hingga saat ini masih berdiri kokoh. Rumah ini memiliki sejarah dan asal-usul yang mengandung kebanggaan tersendiri bagi masyarakat yang ada dan tinggal di daerah ini. Dari kisah yang ada, kerajaan Bungku pada masa lampau memiliki hubungan yang erat dengan kerajaan Ternate terutama saat melawan perang terhadap kekuatan tentara Portugal. Banyak kisah menarik yang dapat di dengar langsung dari keluarga kerajaan Bungku yang hingga kini masih menetap di rumah kerajaan tersebut.Nova Wahab Rabbie merupakan salah satu penerus generasi kerajaan Bungku bisa menjelaskan tentang asal-usul dan sejarah kerajaan dari leluhurnya tersebut. Di belakang rumah kerajaan ini kita juga dapat mengunjungi makam dari Raja Bungku tersebut. Berkunjung ke rumah raja merupakan sebuah kebanggaan tersendiri apalagi pemilik rumahnya sangat ramah dan selalu bersedia menghidangkan segelas kopi/tea dan kue-kue khas lokal yang rasanya luar biasa yang nantinya akan mampu mengingatkan saya untuk kembali lagi melakukan kunjungan ke lokasi bersejarah ini.See more..
