Mahsuri Mausoleum |
The public was first introduce to Langkawi by the late Tunku
Abdul Rahman Putra al-Haj, who is the first prime minister of Malaysia. As a
young district officer in Kedah, Tunku used to visit Langkawi and had wanted to
visit Mahsuri’s grave to pay his respects. However, no one could tell him where
it was. So, Tunku made up his mind to find it. He was not one to give up and so
persevered until one day, he came across a grave hidden in some undergrowth. He
was sure that it was Mahsuri’s although there was no marker indicating that
fact or otherwise. Then, he approached a contractor to build a tomb for her.
