The second largest city in east Timor. Three hours drive from Dili.
There are two sections to Baucau, New Town and Old Town. A number of very pretty colonial buildings have survived here in various states of repair; notable among them is the pink Pousada de Baucau, arguably the plushest hotel in the country (with a very good restaurant and great views over the Savu Sea).
The Real Traditional Town
If you can?t live without electricity, hot water and reliable telephone lines, use Baucau as a base for exploring points east and south.

look attracting too, but very far from the capital...
That's a very pink hotel.
