Sikka’s Old Church is an important historical icon in Flores’s Sikka regency. It is over a century old and is built by Pastor Yohanes Engbers together with King Sikka Yoseph Mbako Ximenes Da Silva in 1899 during Portuguese Colonialism. Sikka’s Old Church is prettily Baroque, which was the most popular architectural style in Europe at that time and built mostly with wood.
Then to Koka Beach. Precisely in Wolowiro Village, Paga District, this beach is located on the south coast of Flores Island. From Maumere City, it takes around 48 km. Koka beach is a beach which is very attractive with clean sea views, as well as the water is very clear, soft white sand stretches forming segment, left and right there are cliffs like a natural painting looks very artistic.

The village consist of two parallel rows of traditional, high thatch-roofed houses and megalithic formations in the village center. With its impressive stone formations and ancestral shrines, as well as traditional houses, Bena has turned into a signpost for Ngada culture.
Then to Luba Village. Less famous than Bena Village, Luba seemed to be completely neglected by the tourists. Luba is located next door to Bena. Although lacking the fairy-tale charm distinctive to Bena and Gurusina, it makes up with its location, at the very foot of Mt. Inerie.
Continue our trip to Aimere Sub-Distrik. Known as the producer of the best traditional Flores alcohol. The drink is made by distillation of local palm tree. Get a taste or see how this unique delicacy is made in traditional ways.

With their round, spider web structure, these pieces of land are unique eye catchers from the top of hill.
Then to Todo Traditional Village. Todo Village is the center of Manggarai kingdom that controls the island of Flores before finally having to move to the city of Ruteng because of the Dutch invasion. One proof of the greatness of King Todo and its influence on the Kingdom of Manggarai is the presence of Rumah Niang or Mbaru Niang. Having a cone shape on the roof, this traditional Todo traditional house is enough to steal the world’s attention, when it was named one of the candidates for the 2013 Aga Khan Award for Architecture from UNESCO. With five levels pumped by wood and bamboo, Rumah Niang has a quite sacred human skin drum inside. This drum is able to tell the origin of the Kingdom of Manggarai in Todo Village.
