Palopo
A mid-sized city on the coast of South Sulawesi, Indonesia, Palopo sits where the sea meets a mountain backdrop. It served as the capital of Luwu Regency until becoming an autonomous city in 2002. The combination of waterfront access and highland scenery nearby gives the city its motto — "Clean, beautiful and pleasant" — and makes it a practical base for exploring this part of Sulawesi.
