Abstract

This study aims to analyze Maimun Palace as a cultural heritage site and educational tourism destination in Medan City, focusing on its historical and cultural value, its role in preserving the Malay Deli cultural heritage, and its function and contribution to educational tourism. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed. Primary data were obtained through interviews with T. Nuhzatul Syima Delikhan (Tengku Puteri Seri Kemala)—a key informant from the Deli Sultanate family—and Dayana Sabila, a visitor and university student.

The results indicate that Maimun Palace possesses significant historical and cultural value as a legacy of the Deli Sultanate and a designated national cultural heritage site (under Decree No. PM.01/PW.007/MKP/2010). These values encompass the history of the Deli Sultanate, Malay Deli identity, an architectural blend of Malay, Islamic, Indian, and European styles, and the cultural memory passed down to the community.

Nevertheless, the dissemination of historical information needs to be strengthened through guided tours and interpretive media to optimize its educational function. The study recommends strengthening educational tourism, improving area management, fostering institutional collaboration, ensuring sustainable

Abstract

This study analyzes Maimun Palace as a cultural heritage site and educational tourism destination in Medan City. It examines its historical and cultural values, its role in preserving Malay Deli heritage, and its contribution to educational tourism. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach. Primary data were collected through interviews with T. Nuhzatul Syima Delikhan (Tengku Puteri Seri Kemala) from the Deli Sultanate family and Dayana Sabila, a university student visitor. Secondary data came from legal documents, official cultural and tourism sources, books, and scholarly articles. The findings show that Maimun Palace has significant historical and cultural value as a legacy of the Deli Sultanate and a national cultural heritage site under Decree No. PM.01/PW.007/MKP/2010. Its values include Malay Deli identity, the history of the Deli Sultanate, distinctive architecture combining Malay, Islamic, Indian, and European influences, and cultural memory within the community. The palace preserves heritage through the maintenance of buildings, collections, and traditions. It also supports educational tourism by introducing visitors, students, and tourists to Malay Deli history and culture. However, management, maintenance, institutional cooperation, guided tours, and interpretive media require improvement. The study recommends stronger collaboration, sustainable preservation, improved educational facilities, and youth participation.
