Fly to Makale

When you fly to Makale, you re flying into Indonesia s remote Tana Toraja region. Makale is the economic and administrative heart of this part of South Sulawesi. Makale sits on the shores of a man-made lake and many of its buildings are traditional Tongkonan, a distinctive Toraja architectural style characterized by boat-shaped rooms and saddleback roofs.

Attractions

According to Indonesian mythology, the first Tongkonan was built by the creator named Puang Matua. For many centuries, only Toraja nobles were allowed to build the old structures. Today, many of Makale s government buildings make use of this unique approach to construction.

Every week, a market held here draws participants from all parts of Tana Toraja and offers a rare opportunity to interact with Toraja culture firsthand. The Makale market is one of the largest in the South Sulawesi region and visitors can find everything from buffalo and pigs to local fruits, vegetables and electronics for sale there.

Makale has a relatively temperate climate for this part of Indonesia with year-round temperatures of about 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The rainy season typically lasts from July to October.
