Two kilometres to the south of the tomb of Sultan Abdul Malik there exist tomb of the 17th Sultan of Perak...

His high highness name which is Sultan Alauddin Mansur Iskandar Muda seemed to combine the names of 2 major Sultans of Aceh which is Sultan Alauddin Mansur (ruled 1580-1585) and Sultan Iskandar Muda (ruled 1607-1636). Is it because his highness has traces of blood from both? For information Sultan Alauddin Mansur is a son of the 2nd Sultan of Perak, Sultan Mansur Shah.

The position of this tomb is very remote, not accesible to land vehicles.

In order to reach here I have to ride a bike before walking quite a distance along the banks of the Perak river.
