Because in our visit this time coincides with the rainy season (December), then unfortunately we also do not get to enjoy the freshness of the waterfall due to flow of the rivers and waterfalls were very heavy. The color of the river water is very turbid, brownish color as a result of rising sand at the bottom of the river because of the swift water. By contrast, if we visit at the right time, then its water clarity will be apparent and we too can be satisfied playing the water, soaking even stand just below the waterfall fall to just feel the sparks waterfall touching the body. Hmmm, looks like I have to come back later during the dry season.Bantimurung- butterflies 4
one more thing that is worth a visit here is the Museum of the Butterflies, where we can see a variety of butterflies of various types, colors and sizes. Everything is documented in full in the museum. Actually felt sorry to see the butterflies are preserved as it was, but that's what happened, supposing they are preserved mummy to be immortalized in the museum. According to the info we got, a variety of butterflies that are around the area were actually coming from a lake known as Lake Kassi Kebo. The lake is surrounded by steep cliffs and decorated with white sand at the edge. Lake which is the main habitat of the butterflies that exist in this Bantimurung.Bantimurung- butterflies 10
