Visiting the tomb of Tun Teja



Next we went to Merlimau to visit the tomb of Tun Teja.


According to the stories she was an outstanding beauty who became the wife of the Sultan of Melaka.




The tombstones which grace the tomb is known as Aceh tombstones.




The Aceh delegates were pleased to see it.






But they added, the tombstones are not of Aceh proper type but that of Samudera-Pasai, an ancient kingdom which later got absorbed into the greater Aceh kingdom.
