A unique cultural experience at the Wae Rebo village in Flores


The main house on the right where the elders live.

On our recent trip to Indonesia, my wife and I visited an amazing place called the Wae Rebo village in the island of Flores. This village was granted the “award of excellence” by Unesco in 2012, during the Asia Pacific Heritage Award in Thailand.

The journey to Wae Rebo started from Labuan Bajo, where we boarded a van that took us on a four-hour drive to Denge. We went through all kinds of terrain, from narrow village roads and winding mountain roads to bumpy gravel roads with gigantic potholes.
