01Tourism

The local government is aiming to promote a range of tourist sites including the following:

Nanga Labang village, on the seashore with pristine beaches Lake Air Panas (Hot Water) in Rana Masak Gampang Mas village near Borong Laka Rana Tojong where the giant lily (Victoria amazonica) grows.

An additional feature of interest in the regency is the Pota Komodo dragon which has similar traits to the more well-known Komodo dragon found in neighbouring West Manggarai Regency. The population of the Pota Komodo dragon has been declining and there is now concern about conservation of the local dragon population.

International visitors travel through various parts of the district, sometimes liaising with local groups such as village Catholic communities. In late 2012, one visiting Polish couple took the decision to be married in Lait Valley in the Kota Komba area.
