A Place to Understand and Appreciate Batak Culture
We made our way here as one of the first visits on Samosir island. We came here mainly mto visit the Batak Museum. This place also houses one of the Batak tribe's king's tomb. Its a good location to view and understand Batak architecture and culture. There are Batak houses to visit to understand how the structures are build and there are old stone carvings.

We visited Huta Siallagan museum in August 2019. It was a sacred place. The most interesting things in the museum are stone sculptures «Batu Parsidangan », located under a tree. The stone chairs/table were for the king Siallagan and queen, the clan chiefs and the spiritual leader, when they made judgement. The village is also very typical with beautiful Batak houses!

Worth a visit
Very good tour guide on sight worth paying extra charge as he spoke good English and brought the sight and stories to life . Facts of historical horror ! There are clean toilets and shops to buy wood carvings and Batak Textiles . Worth a visit.
