Manado City Map --
Manado,
North Sulawesi
The
provincial capital of North Sulawesi, Manado is the starting
point for exploration of the Minahasa region's many attractions.
Fun-loving and extroverted, the Minahasa people live in
neat wood frame houses, with fences and flower gardens,
giving Manado a European feel. There is a wide range of
hotels and restaurants - those with an adventurous palate
should try the famously hot and spicy Minahasa cuisine.
The city's numerous shops and markets are filled with an
abundance of consumer goods and agricultural produce, while
behind every building are glimpses of emerald hills and
azure sea. Inland from Manado, a trip through the Minahasa
Highlands will take you to intriguing prehistoric above-ground
burials sites, volcanoes, hot spring, the highland lake
Tondano and breathtaking panoramas of lush mountains, coffee
and coconut plantations, orchid gardens and terraced hillsides.
From Manado also be sure to visit Tangkoko Nature Reserve,
home of birds and other wildlife unique to Sulawesi, such
as the Tarsier ( The smallest Monkey of the world )
