About Makassar
Makassar is the capital of South Sulawesi, a historic Indonesian trading port with a Dutch-era fort, wooden Bugis schooners and a sunset promenade.
Makassar is the largest city in eastern Indonesia, a port on the south-west coast of Sulawesi that grew rich on the spice trade and the Gowa sultanate. Fort Rotterdam, first raised by the Gowa kings and rebuilt by the Dutch after 1667, holds a museum, courtyards and old warehouses. Losari Beach is a waterfront promenade that fills at sunset with food stalls and families, and a mosque built partly over the water stands on its shore.
