On to the tomb of Sharif Muhammad al-Baghdadi

Continuing from Batu Buruk from a tower.


In the afternoon we went to the district of Kuala Berang to visit the tomb of a 13th century major religious figure of Terengganu called Sharif Muhammad al-Baghdadi.


The tomb lies at the upper reaches of the Terengganu river.



We have to take a boat to get there..











On the way lies a stone said to be splitted into two by Sharif Muhammad using his bare hands...



The tomb lies within an area inhabitated by a community who decided to lead a basic life far away from modern amenities,






The tomb complex. For further read look at the article Makam (Tomb of) Sharif Muhammad al-Baghdadi in the blogspot SENI LAMA MELAYU (MALAY OLDEN ART)
