Popular Meeting Spots in Medan

Top-rated places to explore and meet fellow travelers

Attraction

Maimoon Palace

A royal palace of Sultanate of Deli, built by Sultan Makmun Al Rasyid Perkasa Alamsyah in years 1887–1891, the palace covers 2,772 m² and has 30 rooms. It has unique interior design, mixing elements of Malay cultural heritage, Islam, Spanish, Indian and Italian style. Only a small number of rooms can be visited, with a history of the sultan family and a few artefacts, portraits and photographs. Quite busy and popular place with locals and tourists.

Attraction

Vihara Borobudur (Buddhist Temple)

Features some Chinese-style Mahayana statues of Guanyin (the Goddess of Mercy) as well as regular Theravada Buddhist paraphernalia. The conservative opening hours may have something to do with a rumour heard on the grapevine that apparently one of the major figures behind the temple has become a devotee of ''Sai Baba'' (the late controversial Indian Guru), who in his passing apparently still maintains a small community of supporters in Medan.

Attraction

Gunung Timur Temple

A Daoist temple of significant scale located about 500m from Sri Mariamman Temple. It contains a large paved area with an impressively scaled incense burner, two covered badminton courts, a very large main hall and is partly surrounded by a moat and walls. It is particularly crowded with worshippers on Chinese New Year and Cap Go Meh.

Attraction

Rahmat International Wildlife Museum & Gallery

Opened in 1999 and is chiefly the most incredible global taxidermy collection you could imagine. This place has to be seen to be believed - it's the sort of thing that could only happen in Asia! A veritable treasure-chest, it features numerous critters of sea, land and sky as well as the collected flotsam of the eccentric founding Afghan's life hunting big game, fishing, hob-nobbing and generally getting around the world. An obvious labour of love by Doctor Rahmat himself, who has since been successfully installed as the chairman of the Indonesian Museum Association, this place is a small stay against the sea of Sumatran rainforests being destroyed and poached every year. Worth supporting against ill-contrived zoos otherwise found throughout the region.

Attraction

Great Mosque of Medan

Built on 1906 and completed on 1909, the mosque was designed by a Dutch architect mixing Morrocan, European, Middle Eastern and Malay styles. One week prior to ''Idul Fitri'', the whole Jalan Masjid Raya is closed to hold a night market where food and merchandise are sold. Women can visit, too, but they have to enter the central hall through a separate door and stay behind a provisory wall that separates the hall in two. Around the mosque is a graveyard for the broad sultan's family.

Attraction

Graha Maria Annai Velangkanni

Catholic Shrine with Tamil Hindu-style architecture, devoted to Our Lady of Good Health.

Attraction

Sri Mariamman Temple

A Tamil Hindu temple. Beware: there are two of these! This one's the one on the corner not so far from town. The other one is down a long alley and is closed up. Featuring many brighty coloured statues of all the major gods from the Tamil Hindu pantheon and a few ''naga stones'', this temple is testament to the reach of the ancient Tamil maritime empire and the age of the Tamil community in Sumatra. Events regularly take place at this temple.

Attraction

Tjong A Fie Mansion

The former mansion of the leader of the local Chinese community of Medan (then ''Deli'') who succeeded in ingratiating himself with both the Indonesian Muslims and the Dutch colonial authorities. No mention is made of his relations with the local Indian community. He became very rich on the profits of his hard-working countrymen, importing them as labour for Dutch plantations and shipping them off when they became destitute or impoverished through overwork, old age or opium. This colourful and ornately decorated building tells his story and that of his descendants, as well as filling in some details about the city's past.

Attraction

Tirtanadi Water Tower

One of Medan's icon, the water tower was built by Dutch government on 1908 with height of 42 m. Currently it's state owned by PDAM Tirtanadi.
