There are different methods of Torajan burial. Inside a huge rock ("stone" burial), in cliffs or caves, hanging off cliffs and then new modern way. Concrete and always above ground.
You don't have to go very far from Rantepao (capital of Tana Toraja) to see these usual stone graves. We visited these during our day hike. There were still excursions to the "Baby Tree," Effigies and Hanging Graves coming on today's agenda... Please don't forget to Subscribe Share and Like. Thanks.
