Sleepy town where friendly people compensate for the lack of tourist sites.

There is not much to do in Pare Pare, a sleepy port town a few hours north of Makassar. Apparently, the town is an important connector for ferry services, but other than that, there is nothing happening, nothing to see. Except that its extremely friendly inhabitants make up for everything that lacks otherwise. Great place for a stop-over, thus.
