Sultan Hasanudin (1629-1690) is Gowa King that spent all of his
life to against the Dutch colonization. This graveyard is located at
Gowa Kings complex. He was famous for his exceptional bravery in his
struggle against colonial encroachment in South Sulawesi. His tomb and
those of other kings of Gowa are located in a secluded cemetery not far
from Sungguminasa, about 8 km from Ujung Pandang.
The huge crypts are gray with age and just outside the walls of
the cemetery, a small fenced-off plot contains the Tomanurung stone on
which the kings of Gowa were crowned in a show of pomp and splendor. Not
far from the tombs is the oldest mosque in the area, built in 1603.
