Potential tourist attractions are spread over 12 (twelve) sub-districts, both natural, cultural-historical and artificial. several problems to build tourist destinations in Aceh Tamiang Regency, including accessibility to tourism objects still looks damaged. Maintenance of damaged roads has not yet been carried out by the district government.
