Medan is a foodie’s paradise, best explored through its vibrant street eats and cultural mix. Don’t miss Kampung Madras, known as Medan’s Little India, where Indian heritage dates back to the Dutch colonial era. A few hours away lies Lake Toba, the world’s largest volcanic lake, formed 70,000 years ago. At its heart is Samosir Island, offering scenic views and a peaceful escape in the highlands of Sumatra.
