Hello friends in Pinmapple Community, traveling is one way to make life more enjoyable, traveling can get rid of boredom due to daily routines. One of my travel destinations is beautiful scenery, cool climate (because I usually live in a hot climate) and of course natural baths. Traveling can also add insight and knowledge about various customs and cultures from various regions and countries. In Indonesia, the even semester break will begin in mid-June. Because yesterday was a holiday, my friends and I planned to travel to Lake Toba.
Lake Toba is one of the tourist icons on the island of Sumatra. Lake Toba is located in the province of North Sumatra and is the largest lake in Indonesia. Lake Toba is the largest tectonic lake in Indonesia, the beauty of Lake Toba attracts tourists to come to Lake Toba. Lake Toba is a tourist destination for local and foreign tourists.
Lake Toba offers lake tourism and also extraordinary beautiful natural scenery. Visitors can swim in the cool water of Lake Toba. The cool climate with a gentle breeze on Lake Toba will make us feel at home for a long time on Lake Toba. Around Lake Toba there are 7 districts that surround it. The regencies are North Tapanuli, Samosir, Simalungun, Toba Samosir, Dairi, Humbang Hasundutan dan Karo.
For visitors who want to enjoy the beautiful view of Lake Toba, they can rent a boat, wooden boat or ferry. I want to try all three, first I sailed on a ferry, then I tried on a wooden boat. I'm not going to sail the boat. I just want to feel the sensation. But it turns out the taste is the same, only there is beauty along Lake Toba.
The fees charged are also relatively cheap, a trip from Tuk Tuk (one of the tourist destinations on Lake Toba) to Samosir Island is only 32K rupiah.
In the middle of Lake Toba there is a small island called Samosir Island. Apart from offering beautiful views, on Samosir Island we can also find various Toba Batak customs (Batak Samosir).
After a day of sailing across Lake Toba, it's time to buy souvenirs typical of Lake Toba. Lake Toba is one of the producers of salted tilapia, carp and Batak fish. Apart from that, we can also buy roasted peanuts which are fried in hot sand, they are called kacang sihobuk.
And don't claim to have been to Lake Toba, if you don't buy Parapat mangoes, typical mangoes from Lake Toba. This mango is one of the mangoes with a small but sweet taste. When they are young, Parapat mangoes are usually used as sweets and pickles. The price per kilogram of Parapat mango is 25 K rupiah.
In the area of Lake Toba, many are inhabited by the Toba Batak/Samosir Batak tribe. Therefore, around Lake Toba, we will find many typical Batak graves. The Toba Batak graveyard is also a tourist destination on Lake Toba. This cemetery uses a lot of typical architecture of the Toba Batak tribe, many beautiful details are displayed on the graves. Government buildings also generally use the typical architecture of the Toba Batak tribe.
