Palawa

Palawa is a small village, 10km northeast of Rantepao. It consists of two rows of traditional Tongkonan houses facing each other (entry ticket: 30000 IDR). Very scenic and the house roofs are built with traditional materials, as opposed to most Tongkonan houses in Tana Toraja which use corrugated metal roofs.
