Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medan is a city on the north coast of the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, and the capital of North Sumatra province. It's interesting to contrast the old, Dutch style green areas, with parks, lawns, and huge old Dutch houses (now turned into government offices or commercial business) and the hundreds and hundreds of newer, shoddy shophouses sprawled together by the hundreds in the commercial areas along with a few modern style malls. Medan isn't a tourist destination, but it's a convenient stepping stone to other places like the 'weekend getaway' Berastagi, the island of Penang, Malaysia, and the popular, beautiful crater lake, Lake Toba. Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
