Bro had never seen a Sultan's palace. For some reason I thought of those stories from the Thousand and One Nights. Interesting tour through a piece of Indonesian history. One thing that caught my attention is why is there a pot under the cannon?

😂😂😂
it's not a pot sir, but a water container, because there is water in the pot, and we don't know what that means. maybe what we talked about above this cannon is like being worshiped that way, so there are few flowers and water pots.

I love the way Maimoon Palace was maintained and that it's still inhabited from time to time! Makes the tourist get a feeling of being closer to the reality of those who are staying there!

Yes, that's right, and so that tourists from outside the city know that Medan also has historical sites that must be preserved and protected

it's a fantastic place with a little bit of the history of the place, thanks
