Middle of Lake Toba there is also a small island which is also called the island samosir. If friends all want to go see the lake Toba, it is advisable to stop at the town of Parapat. From there could see the beauty of lake toba clearer. Parapat also includes one of the tourist city in northern Sumatra.
