IT’S TIME TO
visit FLORES
Flores, taken from Portuguese which means "Flower", is an island in the administrative area of East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. In general, the Portuguese call it "Cabo de Flores" which means "Cape of Flowers". The name was originally given by S.M. Cabot to refer to the eastern region of the island of Flores. This name was finally used officially in 1636 by the Governor General of the Dutch East Indies, Hendrik Brouwer. A study by Orinbao (1969) revealed that the original name of the island of Flores was "Nusa Nipa", which means snake island. From an anthropological point of view, this term is more useful because it contains various philosophical, cultural and traditional meanings of the Flores people. In Flores we can see various cultures in each district, this is because the ancestors of the tribes in Flores came from different places. This is what makes Flores more colorful, apart from its natural beauty.
