Lau Kawar Lake, located near Medan City in Karo Regency, is a romantic destination that rivals the beauty of Lake Toba.

It is also a popular spot for pre-wedding photos among couples.
2. Sipiso - Piso Waterfall

The second recommendation for a romantic tour in Medan is the Sipiso-Piso Waterfall located in Karo. This waterfall has a height of 100 meters and is situated at an altitude of 1,000 meters above sea level. To reach the bottom of the waterfall, you need to trek for 15 minutes from the parking area, descending steep steps.
As the water flow is quite strong, visitors are advised not to get too close to the base of the waterfall. However, you can still enjoy a clear view of the Sipiso-Piso Waterfall from the river area.
3. Tulas Samosir Island

Samosir is an island located in the middle of Lake Toba, known for its captivating natural beauty. Tulas Island, on the other hand, has a mysterious history of being a hideout for soldiers in ancient times. The island has steep cliffs, so it is important to be cautious when exploring the hilly areas.
