Pagaruyung Palace

Reviewed By Bidule005 - France, null

We visited Pagaruyung palace in August 2019. This palace is the most famous attraction in MinangKabau area. The palace is very beautiful and well preserved. It has typical architecture of Minangkabau style with peaked roofs and walls that are remarkably carved and richly decorated. Then, we visited other typical villages with very beautiful and colourful in the surroundings, i.e. Sulit Air, Pariangan and Rao Rao. Highly recommended to visit!!!

Bukittinggi Clock Tower

Reviewed By Bidule005 - France, null

We visited the famous white clock tower in Art Deco style with traditional Indonesian roof style in August 2019. It’s located in a pleasant area of Bukittingi, with: - many horse drawn carts allowing to do sightseeing tours, which are highly recommended for families with kids! - many small shops and colourful markets and sellers. Very pleasant area!!!
