Maimun Palace

wasandi - Maimun Palace is located in the capital of North Sumatra, Medan. More specifically it is located on Jl. Katamso Brig. Similar-like palace in Java, this palace is still there and its occupants are still used for traditional ceremonies.

Royal Palace Deli legacy was built on August 26, 1888 and was inaugurated on May 18, 1891, so how many years tuh awakening? Calculate by myself and yes.

Which initiated the establishment of this building is the Sultan Ma'moen Al Rasyid Perkasa Alamsyah which is a descendant of the king to-9. According to the genealogies of the chisel on marble and on display in the courtyard, the first being King Deli Tuanku Panglima Gocoh Pahlawan (1632-1669). While the latter is the name of the king carved deli to-12, Sultan Azmy Perkasa Alam since 1967.

The architecture is very interesting, a mix of several cultures, but his impression ga 'hit-and-crash. Perhaps the word architect of this building is the architect of Italian origin. Architects in common with the architect of his Grand Mosque, located not far from the Palace Maimun. From the outside looking nuances of Islamic India. But when entered into the nuances of European furniture, like cabinets, chairs, chandeliers. While his own throne Malay nuanced with a magnificent golden yellow color.

Unfortunately, unlike the palace in Java, this Maimun Palace was less well maintained condition. To enter the Palace, we only need to pay voluntary contributions. Here also leased Malay traditional clothes if we want the photos with custom clothing in this Palace.
