Geographically, Medan directly borders the Strait of Malacca to the north, and Deli Serdang Regency to the east, south, and west. Compared to other regions, Medan is relatively small. However, Medan's sloping terrain and location on the edge of the Strait of Malacca provide significant advantages, particularly for the city's growth.
According to historical records, the name Medan comes from the Tamil word "Maidhan" or "Maidhanam," which means open field in Tamil. Before becoming known as a metropolitan city offering numerous attractions, Medan was a port area.
