Pagaruyung Palace

Reviewed By Bidule005 - France, null

We visited Pagaruyung palace in August 2019. This palace is the most famous attraction in MinangKabau area. The palace is very beautiful and well preserved. It has typical architecture of Minangkabau style with peaked roofs and walls that are remarkably carved and richly decorated. Then, we visited other typical villages with very beautiful and colourful in the surroundings, i.e. Sulit Air, Pariangan and Rao Rao. Highly recommended to visit!!!

Great Mosque of Palembang

Reviewed By s12796 - Alice Springs, Australia

Every mosque, mostly the major mosque of the city will have a special artistic design. It might be just another mosque for some, but at least it make a statement about the locals.

Marian Shrine of Annai Velangkanni

Reviewed By 650jimmy - Singapore, Singapore

We have known Pastor James for more than 10 years and whenever we are in Medan, will attempt to go and visit the church and meet Pastor James, if he is available. Once I saw him bless a car. He always spent time to speak to the public and we are comforted by him. We go to lick a candle after prayer and also to collect some bottles of holy water for blessing and bring back to Singapore. We will write a petition to ask for blessing and help in our daily life. Please feel free to come and view the historical gallery and buy some sovenirs for remembrance.

Holbung Hill

Bukit Holbung is a hill covered by grasses, south of Pangururan town at the mainland side. In addition to its location and elevation, it is one of the best places to view geological feature of Lake Toba around Pangururan, which features rolling hills and mountains with lush grasslands and sparse trees, and green bushes found at lower elevation nearer to the lake surface. Its elevation is just nice to view the lake water without too much of reflection on the water surface. The trail is clear and straightforward, and goes through many levels of increasing altitude. A short 15 min walk is required to reach a height with magnificent view. To the north, a bay with rolling hills and Pusuk Buhit Mountain can be seen while to the south is Sihotang Valley and the surrounding rolling mountains. More serious hikers can climb all the way to the top, which takes around an hour. Nature lovers would find the view here to be grandiose and exceedingly beautiful.
