Where to stay in Manado

•First Post•

This city is called Manado, located in North Sulawesi, Indonesia.

This is the most populous city in North Sulawesi making this city as the capital city that has more than half a million inhabitants residing here.

It's a friendly city serving as the welcome gate to the land of waving coconuts.

This city is messy but it is surrounded with amazing places like beautiful beaches, magnificent volcanoes, national marine parks, tropical rainforest, incredible natural reserves and ancient living historical places.
