Totally worth spending an hour to learn about the Timorese struggle for independence. Very well arranged, although more English language explanatory notes would be helpful. Tickets available at the gate at USD1.00. No photography inside allowed

If you have an artistic eye and knowledge of the cultural history you will appreciate this place. Amazing initiative in my opinion.

I visited Valu beach with a view of Jaco, didnt get to the island coz it was windy but snorkeled on Valu beach and it was amazing, heaps of coral and fish, stayed at the beautiful Pousada in Tutuala (call Nico to book +670 77463880) with great views from the cliff top, the road (8kms) from Tutuala to Valu/Jaco was bad but work is in progress... Road scooter from Dili over 3 or 4 days and it was a mission to get there... Lots of road works in progress so hopefully all sections/roads will be much better soon... Stayed at Manatuto, Baucau and Com on the way, Com was nicest and cleanest seaside village I saw, stayed at Kati guesthouse right on beach (phone Angelo +670 75421650)

You can't leave Timor without owning some of their local textiles, the Tais Market has the best selection.

Over 230 young people were massacred by Indonesian Militia near here, those that were left injured were taken to the hospital where the Indonesians murdered those as well. Reviewing the names and ages of those buried here made my skin crawl, such a senseless waste.

A very beautiful church both outside and inside, amazing colourful stain glass windows, very high ceilings making my jaw drop onto the floor. Love coming here with my special girl to pray together for a world full of love and peace ????????

The drive is a challenge for sure, however well worth a visit if in the area or as part of a trip around the area, abandoned however the pools are still working and hot, hot, hot
