The replica of Istano Basa Pagaruyung (Grand Palace of Pagaruyung), which we visited and witnessed, shows how magnificent the Minangkabau cultural heritage and history are. This palace was first built in 1804, but was burned several times, namely in 1804 during the Padri War, in 1966 and in 2007 due to lightning strikes.
Visitors who come here, apart from being able to see Minangkabau culture which enriches Indonesian cultural values, can also take pictures wearing traditional Minang clothing for rent. There is now a more spacious parking lot on the southeast side of the palace.
Good place to hang around. It also provide traditional minangkabau clothes for you to take some picture. Affordable price
A very beautiful palace. It takes about 2 hours drive to get here from Padang City. Entrance fee was only 15k. There's a rent shop for traditional costume and professional photographers to help you get amazing pics of your visit. If youre lucky, you will be able to watch traditional dance performance.
Ancient palace, full of history. Well preserved, too many street photographer offering their help to take your photo in front of the palace
Must-visit in town. Great palace and historical building of minang culture
Very historic build. Always full of people on holiday. Read the story if you come here to jnow that its the third replic. Dont forget to try satay around there. Recomended
Salah satu destinasi pupular di Sumatera Barat. Bangunannya megah dengan ornamen detail di bagian dalam yg cukup membuat decak kagum.
Tapi.., Sangat disangkan ketika saya kesini sedang ada lomba mewarnai tingkat TK yg pesertanya dari beberapa kota di Sumatera Barat jadi ramenya minta ampunnn. Efek dari lomba ini luar biasa parah, sampah makanan dimana-mana, kotor. Masuk ke dalam istana juga kotor. Seharusnya sebagai cagar budaya, pihak pengelola lebih bijak, tidak mengadakan acara-acara yg justru merusak cagar budaya itu sendiri. Mungkin mengadakan lomba untuk anak TK disini tujuannya untuk mengenalkan budaya pada anak kecil, tp pertimbangkan juga dampaknya. Harus lebih dikelola dengan baik. Sy yg datang dari Jakarta cuma bisa geleng2 kepala, di dalam istana penuh sesak anak TK dan orangtuanya, tak cuma itu kotor, banyak benda yg tidak semestinya berserakan di lantai.
I love the architecture. One of the best etnic house in Indonesia. Unfortunely there is nothing can make me stay longer after travelling so far to this place. Took the photo outside and inside then leave in 30 minutes. Too bad
The palace has been renovated twice due to fire. The drapes are beautiful and the architecture was very interesting and meaningful. You can ask for a guide to explain to you every single history of the palace.
It's beautiful palace in West Sumatra. You can rent "baju adat" here for female or male. The place is clean, and the people friendly. It will be better if there's any tour guide to explain the historical story of the palace.
you can rent a traditional attire (full with the accessories) in the basement before entering the palace, many beautiful spot for capturing pictures, there's many souvenir/gift shop near the parking lot, it will be a little bit crowded in long weekend/public holiday, but the palace is really worth to visit.
Great Historical Palace of West Sumatra, here you can learn about their culture, traditions or even try out their traditional ceremonials attire.

Iconic travel destination in province of west sumatera. It's a real size palace of once a Kingdom of Pagaruyung. You may find many collections from the early 1800 and 1900 and also the historical journey of the royal family.
The place is beautiful and has a cool air. It's also suitable as a place for history learning and recreation with family.
Nice place to visit. The Istano (Royal Palace) Pagaruyung has many detailed woods ornament, unique design and three deck floor. Its wide open window in each floor gives us very good view to the nature environment outside. And the last, dont forget to rent the traditional minangkabau costume and shoot some instagramable picture.

This traditional Minang palace is very nice. You can hire traditional Minang costume to take a picture with only IDR35.000 for one set, except the sandals.
The indoor area of the castle need to be given extra care. Dust on the floor and spider webs on their ceilings & walls especially on the 2nd and 3rd floor.
Apart from the beautiful Pagaruyung castle as the background of your photo & the traditional Minangkabau clothing rental, there are nothing much interesting here.
Cultural place in west sumatra. You can wear a traditional dress here for Rp 35.000 per person (june 2017)
Its a beautiful palace, all are made of wood, with a beautiful carving and colorful fabric inside of it as a decoration. Very cheap entrance ticket ! Lots of historic and ancient relic a must see place !
Tempat rekreasi budaya Minangkabau. Mengenal kerajaan Minang yang peninggalannya masih eksis sampai sekarang. Jika belanja pernak-pernik wisata bisa tawar menawar sekitar 30%.
Crowded on holidays. There's an 'odong-odong' ride around the complex for 5K per person.
Give good experience about traditional culture of Minangkabau.. Beautiful place!!
This is the traditional house of minangkabau, the outside and the inside is so majestic, beautiful and extraordinary architecture. Only with 15.000 IDR, you can enjoy the beauty of this custom house.
The Pagaruyung/ Minangkabau palace is beautiful and unique. Inside the palace, we can see the history and the traditional decorations, etc
Interesting, when we were there, school students were practicing traditional dance and musics. A good visit, but very hot in the noon.
Can't believe I had been here. Amazing palace, near from gadang watch and easy to get there. We can rent traditional clothes and take pictures. It also offers cheap entrance ticket for local and foreigner tourists, IDR7,000/pax for local adult and IDR12,000/pax for foreigner.
I love minangkabau!!! i love the culture and tradition of minangkabau!!
An impressive aarchitecture design with connection to Istana Seri Menanti.
Rancak bana istano ko.. a Rancak bana iko.. Verry Good Sumatera Barat
What a great place to visit! I've never thought that Minangkabau has a beautiful place like this Pagaruyung Palace
Awesome and worth the drive. Fee for foreigner. Once inside you can enjoy the the view from the huge building. Stairs are pretty steep inside so watch the climb in slippery socks.
The center of minangkabau culture, awesome place.. now, there is a long stairs behind the palace to the top hill, it's called "janjang 1001"
Eventhough this is new building to replace the old one that was burned in 2007, but it still give a great feeling of proud to be a Minangkabau, we have rich and complete "adat" from very very long time ago.
Amazingly built traditional palace of Pagaruyung. Each part of the palace has its own function and clearly explained. This huge palace used to be im existence of King and his family, equipped with its food barn added with extremely great surrounding view
