Penangkaran Buaya Asam Kumbang — Attraction in City of Medan

The entrance fee is IDR 10,000 and you can buy mask if you need it, but I didn’t buy one.

In this place you can see so many crocodiles from age several months until 45 years. It was a bit smelly, but after sometime, you’ll get used to it.

It's kinda dilemma because when the entrance ticket is expensive then people will not come and when it's too cheap then the owner will face some problems in maintaining. How about some...
