Poso is the main port and transportation hub for the northeastern coast of Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Its geographical location is Template:Coor dm.
Heavily damaged in sporadic ethnic/religious conflict over several years in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the town is currently almost exclusively controlled by Muslim forces (cf Tentena, a Christian stronghold that many Christian former Poso residents fled to during fighting).
Places to stay
- Note - many places listed in guidebooks have either been destroyed or are no longer functioning.
- Losmen Lalang Jaya - next to the port, this hotel is built on stilts over the bay. Excentric but beautifully situated.
- Coral beach - a little out of town, this series of beachside bungalows is an attractive option.id:Poso
