North Toraja, Administrative region in South Sulawesi, Indonesia
North Toraja Regency covers 1,289 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with elevations from 150 to 3,083 meters above sea level in South Sulawesi.
The region separated from Tana Toraja Regency in 2008, creating a new administrative district with Rantepao as its central governing location.
The Toraja ethnic group maintains traditional practices of placing deceased relatives in tree trunks and cliff-wall tombs across the mountainous landscape.
Visitors reach North Toraja through Sultan Hasanuddin Airport in Makassar, followed by a seven-hour journey north through the mountains.
Traditional Tongkonan houses display curved roofs adorned with buffalo horns, reflecting social status and familial connections within the community.
