Quick Escape to Berastagi Highland!

What a busy day? It is 17.37 and I am still sitting in my office. I want to go home but it is after office hour. It reminds me how the road will be so jammed and I might be stuck for minutes before I can reach home.

Hmmm.. and right now, I am thinking to find some cool and calm places that can make me feel relax.. Highland might be a very good choice.. and the nearest one will be Berastagi Highland. I wish I was there now..

It is the nearest highland with just less than 1.5hours drive from Medan.. People love to go there to spend their weekend. There you will find the city with its traditional market selling fresh flowers, fruits & vegetables. I have some pictures that I can show my fellow travellers how it looks like and you will know what I mean.

From Berastagi highland, if we drive further about 40 minutes passing through the town of Kaban Jahe, we will end up in a place called Sipiso-piso. This is the place where you can enjoy the beautiful view from the top of Toba Lake with the Sipiso-piso waterfall at the other side.

From that point, if you wish to get closer to the lake, just 20 minutes drive down the hill passing through beautiful valley, and you will end up in small fisherman village called Tongging which is located next to Lake Toba. I still remember the tranquility of those village.. All seems so perfect...
