Circulate
- The minibus terminal (bemo or angkutan) is located between the market and Fort Oranye. No real routes. Be careful, minibuses do not go to the airport, you have to walk about 15 minutes to the south before finding them on the main road leading to the city center.
- A trip in an ojek (motorcycle taxi) will usually cost you around 10 000 IDR.
- If you want to go around the island for the day, you can rent the scooter from the ojek drivers for about 100 000 IDR.
To buy
- Nutmeg can be purchased from a producer who dries them on the side of the road. We buy dry nuts that are beige in color or those that still have their brown hulls but which make noise when shaken. The red skin that surrounds the nut is also dried and can be eaten, but it is more expensive nonetheless.
- T-shirts with the effigy of Ternate are on sale in various shops near the large shopping center and the "landmark".
Eat
- 1 Akustik cafe (near Pertamina gas station on cengkeh afo street) – A pleasant address for western food. There are also concerts. Don't be fooled by the entrance, the place is very large!
- 2 Sate Maryam-1 (near the Ternate landmark) – Good chicken sates with a very nice peanut sauce that holds! All accompanied by rice of course, at a price of 30 000 IDR
