ACEH : TOUR PLANNER
Chinese chronicles from
as early as the sixth century
speak of a kingdom called Po-Li on the northern tip of
what is now Sumatra. Arabic writings and Indian inscriptions
from around the 9th century also mention this area and
its obvious importance. Of all the regions in Indonesia,
Aceh, at the northwestern end of Sumatra, is the firsts
to have contact and be influenced by th eoutside world.
Ironically, it is still one of the least known regions
of Indonesia, even among Indonesians themselve.
