There is a replica of the tower, which originated in Myanmar. Located in the village of Tonko in North Sumatra, Medan and Berastagi, it is called the Lumbini Nature Park Pagoda.

Tjong A Fie’s house

But Tjong A Fie’s Mansion is more than just a home. Because from ancient times this place has been a symbol of the diversity of the city of Medan. In fact, its status has become a national cultural heritage not only in Medan but also in North Sumatra. Tjong A Fie’s house was a Chinese merchant who lived between 1860 and 1921. The building is over 100 years old, but the manager manages it so that it can stand proudly.

Medan Chinatown

Apart from the Meldeca Walk, Medan is home to Medan’s Chinatown, an area that offers a variety of delicious food and festive atmosphere. This road has a variety of interesting menus such as different types of noodles, satay, ducks, crustaceans, monitor lizards, snakes, frogs, Ronton Sayul, vegetable rice, and Malta Baku.
