Show us something that takes your breath away.
This is lake Matano, one of the deepest lake in the world, 600 meters. Matano is located in South Sulawesi, around 600 km north of Makassar, the capital city of the province. You can go to Sorowako, the village where the lake is located, by flying from Makassar. Matano is still natural, the water is not poluted. Some scientist say that the condition of lake Matano is not changing in the last 30 years. You are able to see something in the deep of the water down under 23 meter below surface. It means that Matano is very bright. The source if the lake is not from river. You can take 'ketinting' from Pantai Ide to Nuha Village to know the beauty of the lake. Around the lake you can see the green mountains. Most of the mountain are not inhabited. Do you want to go there? Take a breath. The beauty of the lake must make you wonder: where am I? Am I in heaven or on earth?

This is actually not a picture from my rearview of a car. I was on a boat on Lake Matano in South Sulawesi last month. The man in the rearview is a reporter from an online media. I don't know his name. At the time I took the picture, he was taking picture too using his handycam. At the far side, there is a mosque. It was in a beautiful morning, the wave was calm, the wind blew smooth. I want to go back to Lake Matano.
