Lo'ko' Mata

A huge round boulder beside the road with dozens of family tombs carved into all four sides, looking like a stone covered in eyes.

Lo'ko' Mata lies beside a mountain road about 3 kilometres beyond Batutumonga. It is a natural boulder tens of metres in diameter, with dozens of tombs carved into its surfaces. Buffalo and other motifs are carved on the tomb doors, and in the Toraja language its name means the stone of eyes. Surrounded by rice terraces and bamboo groves, it can be linked with the Batutumonga viewpoint and a downhill hike along one route. Admission is about 10,000 Indonesian rupiah; half an hour is enough.
