East Timor, or Timor-Leste, a Southeast Asian nation occupying half the island of Timor, is ringed by coral reefs teeming with marine life. East Timor includes the eastern half of the island of Timor, the Oecussi (Ambeno) region on the northwest portion of the island of Timor, and the small islands of Atauro and Jaco. A destination (almost) untouched by human hand, is ideal for ecotourism. But Timor is also the mystical soul of its people, with a unique history and a huge culture waiting to be rediscovered.
