This mansion is so beautiful! Big and very well maintained. I really like it, this is one of the interesting experiences during my stay in Medan. I hope this Mansion will continue to exist and be maintained for generations to come. They also sell some souvenirs and have a coffee shop. The only drawback of this Mansion is that there is no parking space. To visit this place is easier by using a taxi or motorbike.#historicallandmarks #heritagesite
