  1. Budgeting has been established for developing and inlaying various potential tourism objects at East Luwu for period 2007 to 2009. The government of East Luwu has realized that those potencies can increase economic growth if managed well. Therefore, it is really needed optimal efforts and hard working within various cultural and tourism elements to obtain desired result.
    Batara Guru’s earth offers many tremendous landscapes, cultures and arts. The educational, cultural, tourism, youth and sport department has been trying hard with many programs to make the digging of local culture potencies, and making annual agenda such as Maccera Tasi’ activity.
    The heritage of the East Luwu legend ……and Batara Guru said to Sawerigading,”Botting Ri Langia”. It means “Fly to the stairs of God Walenrang tree”. Then a wide sea was created from it, so you can use it to go to the end of heaven (the furthest border) to the Assabureng Palojangnge (ocean edge).
    It is a fairy tale of South Sulawesi society. Despite East Luwu is classified as the youngest district, it is considered as modern area. It has the oldest culture that has played important role in Luwu kingdom history as trade center since long time ago. Particularly for iron seed that was well renowned by keris maker all over the archipelago and other kingdom abroad in 1300 M.
