from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) In 2019, the number of foreign tourist visits in
this province reached 258,822 people. However, this number decreased drastically in 2010
2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The North Sumatra government is targeting the number in 2023
foreign tourists can reach 500 thousand people. To achieve this target, sport tourism
