Hi, im planning to to visit Medan & Padang, it will be a 6days trip on late January next year.
1. Please recommend me how to spend that 6days effectively. Which interesting places both in Medan & Padang that worth a visit? And how to reach those places (considering im taking my mom & aunt, I think I need quite comfortable transportation).
2. Any suggestion on where to stay (budget accommodation if possible)?
3. I already purchased plane tickets from Jakarta to Medan and from Padang to Jakarta. But still wondering how the best way to go from Medan to Padang? By bus or plane or else? How long does it take to reach Padang?
I appreciate any comment..

Thanx a lot!

Hi there,
I am a Taiwanese. I have a question...Is it safe for a Taiwanese
to travel in Padang alone?! Because I've heard a lot about Indenisia,
but I still think it's a nice place to visit...So can anyone give me some
suggestion about travelling ALONE in Padang...
Thanx

Hi all.. What is the cheapest transport to go to Padang town from airport ? Do they have airport couch or bus ? Thanks in advance.

I know someone very dear to me in the village of Air Manis which is just 30 minutes outside of Padang. Does anyone know if this area was hit by the Tsunami? All the news reports are about Banda Aceh, and nothing about the Padang area.

If any fellow traveler visits the Air Manis area, you'll know that the only place to stay is Papa Chilis. The lady who runs it is affectionately known as Mama Chili. I'd like to know if she's ok.
