THE ADDITION of tourism support facilities at The Kaldera Toba Nomadic Escape, North Sumatra, is expected to attract domestic tourists to visit, especially with the signing of a Letter of Intent (LoI) CV 18 with PT. Sejahtera Keiski Internasional to build facilities at The Kaldera Toba Nomadic Escape.
The Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy said in a press release that an LOI had been signed to build a 4-star hotel and luxury glamping which is planned to be completed in October 2024. We hope this will add to our tourism facilities and increase the number of tourist visits to Lake Toba, which per day is already half a million for 2022, and we hope this will increase significantly along with the stretching economy and the movement of domestic tourists whose target is 1.2 billion-1.4 billion domestic tourism movements.
Even the Lake Toba Authority Agency was asked to complete the facilities at The Kaldera Toba Nomadic Escape, with cable car facilities, additional hotels, a cultural arts performance building, and several tourism support facilities.
How can we build the Toba Caldera but with the aspect of green tourism, with the aspect approach that ecotourism does not need us to build big resorts but with a very environmentally friendly concept so that the concept of the Toba Caldera is one with nature.
In addition, the road infrastructure facilities will be built by the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing using KemenPUPR funds, in accordance with the assignment of complete infrastructure for the Lake Toba Super Priority Destinations.
On this occasion the Ministry of Tourism inaugurated the Nomaddict Cafe, as one of the facilities in the Toba Caldera which began operating to serve tourists managed by the regional investor. [sources/photo special]
