Pariangan

Legend has it that this is the cradle of the Minangkabau culture, the first village of the Minangkabau culture, the first village of the Minang ancestors who descended from Mt. Merapi. It is a village of traditional houses, some said to be over 300 years old. The surau or men’s house is one of the last of its kind still in use. Make sure to visit the open council grounds with ancient stone seats, the mosque and hot spring.
