I call this trip a historic trip, because the trip I traveled through the area is very historic. In Ketapang there somewhere including in remote areas, are remnants at the time of the royal era. This is actually the way to the village with my children and wife. A trip taken from Ketapang City Subdistrict path towards Sandai. We use alternative roads which are shortcuts, commonly called road Tanjongpura. Known Tanjongpura road because the road past the tomb of King Tanjongpura and in the area called Tanjongpura.
The journey we take is quite a lot of obstacles, because through these roads are still a lot of road land. Lucky when we take to the roads dry season, kalu season penghujanan the course muddy and easily flooded. Also, prior to the Tanjongpura we have to cross a small quarry motor life. Because the course is no stagnant water, and pass this way generally still much emergency bridge.
the king Tanjongpura. Until the place is, there is a mother who is the cemetery caretaker Buk Fardiah. The entrance to the tomb, beliaupun began to tell me this indicated the tomb of King Tanjongpura named Sultan Muhhamad Jainudin Mursal, he is the leader (king) when Islam entered Ketapang. The first propagator of Islam when it is Seykh Muhhamad Aminulah Al Maghreb from Morocco, and the High Priest of Mecca at the time.
In other places, there is a place called the shrine da net which is also part of the kingdom Tanjongpura when it namely Taman Suci Sweep Jagat. This place is no small pond, and the pond water is also commonly used by local residents to drink. Water is indeed quite strange, because although the small size of the pond even though droughts never dry. And, where it does not need to be cleaned as the royal cemetery Tanjongpura because the place was clean by
The water called citizens zam-zam water to four, so from the royal era up to now become a place where people do dhikr, etc. At the time of the royal era of the King every Friday prayer to the place, which, according to the story that is the road to Mecca. In this place when people are lucky when making dhikr, will see a hole into which there is a small staircase made of gold consists of two levels, the final level is no road to the cave but goanya dark and in front of the cave there are people who wear all-white clothes.
Well, the way is exactly what is said to be the way to Mecca. And, the powerful man-mantraguna like a king and the other when it was every Friday prayer to Mecca on the road, and take uduk water in the pool water was. The water is very clean if we take no dirt at all. Ever committed by one son named Hamzah Has Ketapang (former vice president), taking inserted into a bottle. And, until dimekah compared with zam-zam water, people there told to drink water brought from Borneo, and he drank zam-zam water. Indeed, there is no difference of clarity until kerasanya, the water does not taste like the taste of water usually, it has to typical late.
Points Tanjongpura king's tomb is indeed needed attention , even though they had never been renovated building that is now much damaged , but still maintained their . Every day my mother who at the same Fardiah cemetery caretaker to clean the place, so that if we visited almost no garbage from the yard to go to the funeral . Fardiah family of mother , according to the story when the royal era are the messengers of the king. Thus, the location around the cemetery told the family of his party to manage it with the record should not be traded .
Not felt, because cool to listen to Mom tells Fardiah already 1 hour seated king Tanjongpura the cemetery . Excusing himself , to continue this historic journey . Tremendous difference when it came out of the tomb , heart felt calm and peaceful all. Thus, in order not to be forgotten is the most beautiful memories I can write so.
