Maimun Palace

Maimun Palace is one of the icons of the city of Medan, North Sumatra, is located in the village of Talbot, in the district of Medan Maimun. Designed by Italian architect and built by the Sultan of Delhi, Mamun Al Rashid Perkasa Alam in 1888, Maimun Palace covers an area of 2,772 m2 and 30 rooms.

Maymun's palace into a tourist destination not only because of old age, but also the unique interior design, combining elements of Malaysian cultural heritage, with Islamic style, Spain, India and Italy, but unfortunately seems to care less about that now. If we go through this place in the afternoon, you might even see children playing soccer in the courtyard of the palace.
