Taman Buaya is located in Desa Asam Kumbang, 5 km from downtown Medan (Bunga Raya Kecamatan Medan Selayang No.59
Desa Asam Kumbang, Medan). It started as a hobby for Mr. Lo Tham Muk in 1959 with 12 crocodiles and ended up as a business, however, the food cost and the regulations make it difficult for the farm to develop. Most crocs are in a big artificial lake. Young ones are kept in tanks. There are approximately 2,400 crocodiles of two different kinds (Crocodillus polosus and Tomistona sehlegeli). The oldest crocodile is 41 years old and 6 m long.
