Medan
Medan

Bukit Lawang
Bukit Lawang

Located in the Indonesian state of North Sumatra, Bukit Lawang is a small tourist town on the bank of the Bahorok River. It is around 86 km northwest of Medan and is the primary eastward entry point to Gunung Leuser National Park and home to the majority of Sumatran orangutan wildlife sanctuaries, with 5,000 or more living there. In 1973, the orangutan rehabilitation center at Bukit Lawang was established. Its primary goal was to protect the orangutan population, which was declining as a result of deforestation, poaching, and trade. The center closed in 2002 because it was becoming too touristic and unfit for the rehabilitation of animals.

Berastagi
Berastagi

The town and district of Karo Regency, Berastagi (Dutch: Brastagi, meaning 'rice store'), is located at a crossroads on the main highway that connects the coastal city of Medan with the Karo highlands of Northern Sumatra. The settlement of Berastagi is situated 1,300 meters above sea level and around 66 kilometers south of Medan. When Dutch immigrants in Sumatra established a boarding school there in the 1920s, the village gained notoriety. The colorful fruit and vegetable market and tourism are the two primary drivers of Berastagi's economy. Berastagi's passion fruit is well-known. The town's two active volcanoes, Mount Sinabung and Mount Sibayak, with its hot springs, are its main draws. You can climb each peak in a single day, but a guide is needed.

Samosir Island
Samosir Island

Large volcanic island Samosir, also known as Samosir Island, is situated in Lake Toba in the northern part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Six of the nine districts that make up Samosir Regency are responsible for overseeing Samosir Island administratively. Approximately 75,000 years ago, a supervolcano erupted, creating the lake and island. The island was formerly a peninsula that was joined to the surrounding caldera wall by a narrow isthmus. To facilitate shipping, the Tano Ponggol Canal was built in 1907. Samosir is the biggest island inside an island and the sixth largest lake island in the world, covering 630 square kilometers (243 sq mi). Lake Sidihoni and Lake Aek Natonang, two of its smaller lakes, are also present. To the east, across the lake lies Uluan Peninsula. A small isthmus that connects the towns of Pangururan on Samosir and Tele on the mainland of Sumatra connects the western portion of the island to the mainland. As a result, Tele provides one of the best views of Samosir Island and Lake Toba.
