Liang Woja limestone cave is set within an impressive prominent rock formation along the river side and rice terraces near Golo village in Cibal sub-district.
The name came from the local Language: Liang means Cave and Woja means Rice/Paddy. Liang Woja is the rice storage cave, or the name might have been Liang Woja because of the rice fields near the cave.
This is one of the rarely visited caves which are not as famous as Liang Bua cave in Manggarai regency.
Liang Woja lies in a fantastic natural environment with an excellent panoramic view over the rice fields, mountain hills and river side.
