Bukit Doa Kelong, Sulawesi, Indonesia

Little pilgrimage or lovely walk, you choose
Entry to this site is Rs15,000 per person. It is a very beautiful and well maintained garden around a large paved pathway that winds up a hill with great views from the top. Along the way are high quality life-sized statues of the Stations of the Cross. At the top there is a chapel and amphitheatre. This would be a nice pilgrimage site for Catholics. For us it was a nice walk through lovely gardens with birds and butterflies. Whilst it is up hill, it is not a challenging walk. The living ‘rails’ along the path are made from tree-fern stumps and ropes which have become small gardens in their own right. I was impressed with the landscaping, cleanliness and maintenance of this place and it is well worth a visit if you are going to other sites in this area.

Placid and Scenic
If you are looking for a place to reflect, this is for you. It is so calm and tranquil that upon leaving this place, you will feel like you are rejuvenated. It is also clean and well-maintained. With Mt. Lokon in the background, this place is picturesque.

Good work out and nice out door.
The smell of sulfur you may find it annoying, but there's a good view of Manado city from the heights that probably worth the hike. Hire a local guide to show you an alternate route, take your pictures and lead you to the cheapest massage tent. Yes, they got a massage corner for you (or those) who got tired (or enjoy getting a massage) after the hike. The massage will cost you 20K for 15 minutes and whole day knee-dipping in the hot pool.
