Located at an altitude of 1000 above sea level, surrounded by hills and lush forests, this village is often shrouded in mist when viewed from a distance. It is appropriate to call a village on a cloud. The location is invisible from the crowd with mountains of tropical rain and green valleys that hold the village warm. It is Wae Rebo, a hamlet that is the only place to retain the rest of the traditional architecture of Manggarai culture which is increasingly threatened by its followers. Why is it cone-shaped and where its origin is still a big question mark, except for a bit of information from the tradition of the narrative of the people themselves.

Wae Rebo is in Manggarai Regency, precisely in the District of West Satarmese, Satar Lenda Village.
