Peace be upon you all. While the month of Ramadhan still has a day or two to go let the last article here on the trip to Aceh end of January 2010 be presented.

Pada hari terakhir berada di Aceh saya sempat menziarahi makam Merah (juga dieja Meurah) Pupok, anakanda kepada Sultan Iskandar Muda (memerintah Aceh 1607-1636).
On the last day in Aceh I had the time to visit the tomb of Merah (also spelt as Meurah) Pupok, son to Sultan Iskandar Muda (ruled Aceh 1607-1636).

According to the stories, his majesty was the crown prince slated to replace his father on the throne of Aceh. But he was said to have committed adultery with someone's wife and thus was sentenced to death through stoning by his own father.

Also available nearby are two more tombs using Aceh tombstones. These tombs are surrounded by the graves of Dutch soldiers who died while attacking Aceh in the year 1870an AD. Let me take this opportunity to say Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri (happy celebrating the Eid) to all readers who are Muslims. :]
