Sumatra
The world 5th biggest island is still quiet unknown
island in Indonesia and it’s not the first island that
comes to mind for visiting. Sumatra is rich in culture
and nature and then the island is rich in exporting
products (Oil, gas, rubber, tin, palm oil, tobacco, tea,
coffee and timber) and located in a place that has had
an impressive history.
Most tourists visiting the island are going to the well
known Bohorok Rehabilitation centre for the Orangutan,
which is a 2 ours drive from Medan and it’s a part of
the Gunung Leuser National Park. It’s the only place in
Sumatra you can be lucky to get close to this impressive
mammal. In the National Park you will also find the
Sumatran Rhino, gibbon monkeys, elephants, Sumatran
Tiger and many other mammals, birds, butterflies and
flora. It’s a paradise. If you have the time you can
spend much time to explore.
Sumatra is also know for its many volcanoes and is known
as the spine of Indonesia. The beautiful sight of the
turquoise Toba Lake is the centre of the Batak Highland.
Here you will find the six most important Batak-tribes
that emigrated from the mountains in Myanmar and North
Thailand for over 1500 years ago. Lake Toba is also the
highest located in altitude (900m) in the world and the
biggest crater lake in Southeast Asia. The depth of the
lake is 450m.
The area south of Lake Toba is going through the
mountain chain of winding road, but the area is green
and lush. In the small village of Bonjol where you cross
the equator is the beginning of the Minangkabau
highland. Bukittinggi are the province capital of this
area and is located in the greenery. The architecture of
the roofs is very esthetic and world known.
