Dili  to Ainaro trip

A short introduction to Ainaro 

    Ainaro municipality, in the southern part of the country, has spectacular scenery from the central mountains to the wild south coast and provides wonderful opportunities for exploring and hiking. This area includes Timor-Leste’s highest peak – Mt Ramelau (2960m) which is sacred to the Timorese and known at Tatamailau (grandfather). The towns of Maubisse and Hato Builico have very spectacular hill settings and the larger town of Ainaro is located at a much lower elevation in a lush river valley midway to the Timor Sea.

This is definitely scenery where you want to keep your camera close at hand. The panoramic views from the Maubisse pousada on its promontory are especially impressive, as are the views from Mt Ramelau at dawn after a guided climb from Hato Builico. 

Looking out over the mountain ranges of Timor-Leste bathed in the early morning light is an unforgettable and very rewarding experience.

A lot of coffee is grown in the Ainaro area and vegetables are cultivated in between rocky screes on what often seems like impossibly steep slopes. 

Ponies are still commonly used for carrying produce and other goods between the isolated villages and markets. They and other livestock are seen grazing on the mountainsides.

The majority of the local people speak Mambae and their villages with characteristic thatched circular, conical roofed houses are scattered across the municipality.

About BNU Bank 

The BNU in Timor Creation of the Dili Agency in Timor in 1912

The Royal Charter of Dom Luís I, of May 16, 1864, sanctioned the decree of the general courts, of May 10, authorizing the creation of a bank called Banco Nacional Ultramarino.

Article 2 was clear about the objectives outlined for Banco Ultramarino: “The national overseas bank will have a branch in Loanda in the province of Angola with an effective capital of no less than 400:000$000 réis, which may be raised to 1,000: 000$000 réis, and successively as needed, as well as branches in Benguella and Mossamedes: and in each of the other overseas provinces, as well as in each of the captains of the four districts of the Azores and Madeira, there will be at least one agency”.

Effectively, the BNU was created with the objective of being implemented in all the places of the vast and distant Portuguese colonial empire, and helping to develop the economy of those territories.

It would then be up to the Bank to financially help these territories, a mission that the State was clearly unable to carry out in its entirety, effectively achieving this objective with success, in the years following its creation.
