The location has 2 main parts, TB Silalahi's personal history/achievements museum and the Batak civilization museum. Impressive personal archive and very informative for those interested to learn about the Batak-nese.
The place has a small cafetaria and gift shop, but not much things to browse to buy.

we rode our motorbike to his place.. its a good array of traditional batak houses. the focal point is the stone chairs ensemble under a big tree which is quite unique.You can walk up to the stilt house, and nearby yellow christian shrine/tomb or just sit there for a rest before continue the journey.

We missed the Batak traditional dance performance on Sunday, as there's only one performance @ 11.45am. Entrance fees to Huta Bolon Museum, Simanindo without dance performance is IDR10,000. Personally, I think it's culturally rich, as there's no price-tag to history. Of course, it would be great if description of artefacts can be more detailed & informative. Overall, I'm equally satisfied without experiencing the Batak traditional dance performance

A glimpse of the lives of Kingsof the Islands. 0nce were practicing animism but later converted to Christianity this the appearance of symbolic crosses on the tomb. A guide will be there to explain the details of the departed. So be sure not to miss this site.

The waterfall was more than what we have expected it to be. The journey there was very interesting as well. the road is surrounded by the paddy filed with Mountains as the backdrop. The waterfall water level was quite low during our visit so we could go near to the wall. The water was super cold and refreshing. However it might get a liitle to crowded if there are many people because the pool is just small.

Lake Sidihoni is a lake within a lake because it is located in Samosir Island, which is located within Lake Toba.
Danau Sidihoni terletak di kecamatan Ronggur Ni Huta pulau Samosir, sekitar 8 km dari Pangururan. Danau ini dikelilingi oleh bukit landai berwarna hijau sehingga menambah keindahan dan keasrian. Danau ini dikatakan danau di atas danau Toba, airnya sering berubah warna.Bentuk danau seperti mangkok. Panoramanya sangat indah dan pemandangan di sekitar danau bisa dipantulkan oleh air danau. Tempat ini cocok untuk refreshing dengan udara yang segar. Wisatawan dapat menikmati keindahan sunset yang begitu memukau.

It's on the main land near pangruan exit of the island. Once you cross the bridge from island keep on the left, directions are well marked. Went there on motorbike, roads were good small broken patches at few place. The view from tower is amazing. There is nominal entrance fee. It's must visit if you are spending some time on samosir..

when you in samosir island, you must visited this hill with breathtaking view or take you to the natural pool with clearly water and also the best spot watin sunset. There is some tropical flowers up the hill that you can oonly seen in the dry season. If you go by yourself with a ented motorbike, you could riding around the island but you miss every little piece.
This is one of my favorite spot of Samosir island. It's the view. In my own opinion, its so beautiful. I came to this spot few times, since the local becak/tuk tuk guy showed me and I love spending an hour or bit more there, have little picnic or just to chill Reading my books. The view of the Toba lake, Waterfalls, and rice field of the local people is really calming.
