Sangkurilang-Mangkalihat a vast karst area in East Kalimantan, about 350 miles north of Aberdeen sbelah. According to experts karstologi and speleologi Dr Robby KT Ko, natural corridor generally located in karst areas. This hallway called the cave is the result of the process water that eroded the karst rocks millions of years. The area has mountains and cliffs towering thousands of tower karst scratch sky like a race. Seeing it from the air by helicopter, and landed on exposure to karst 'lapiza' is like plunging into the planet's middle of nowhere, as depicted in the film Star Trek.

Section most westerly row shows the beg-wall hundreds of feet high. From the existence of thousands of small cave-large, then the karst mountains Sangkulirang-Mangkalihat millions of years has clearly become the main water tank for area coast. Abundance of water was flowing major rivers winding avoid karst rocks, sometimes forming waterfalls, rocky gorges cascade or white. The rivers then converge and grow, splitting the winding forest greenery and swamp towards its eastern coast. Karst rivers filled with various types of fish, Udan, turtles, and crocodiles of the river. Sustained its east coast beaches in the mineral rich solution of karst mountains, a heaven for giant estuarine crocodiles and accommodation play a variety of big-fish such as whales, sharks, tuna, or stingray.
Karstnya even stretches down to the small karst islands in the Sulawesi Sea and pretty, like islands Derawan, Birah-birahan, or Miang Besar. Karst water sources popping up in these small islands, and many karst river that empties into the bottom of the sea-coast Sangkulirang Mangkalihat. Pad karst area like that, no wonder if life in the sea is a coral colony is missed by the divers of the world. As my experience, Indonesia's karst region as spectacular Sangkulirang-Mangkalihat it's just the Bird's Head neck area-Raja Ampat in Papua.

Nothing is more touching than adventuring in the mountains of stone giants this mempersona dengna use of water transportation. Starting from the karst islands on the coast, then into the river, and finally headed upstream squiggly eroded karst rocks. Coastal, river, and boat-are the soul of Sangkurilang-Mangkalihat people. They are raised in a culture of water and boats. The rivers were also used to be the main criterion for prehistoric people in the 'build' cultural-landscape it.
