Tana Toraja: Village of the Dead? | Why Do Torajans Keep Corpses in Their Homes
On February 4th and 5th, 2026, I had the opportunity to visit Tana Toraja, on the island of Sulawesi. I've wanted to go here for a long time, but I finally arrived this year.
I departed from Kuala Lumpur for Makassar on February 3rd, then took a bus from Makassar to Tana Toraja on the evening of February 3rd, arriving in Tana Toraja on the morning of February 4th. I took two full-day tours on February 4th and 5th, 2026.
I'll share the funeral rituals in a future video. This is my vlog of my two full days in Tana Toraja.
