we know where his graveyard. When cultures disappear, we dont know where to
find”. In order to preserve Aceh’s culture, Aceh’s Goverment undergoes Culture

Putroe Phang is located in the middle of the
city of Banda Aceh. This place is one of heritage sites in Banda Aceh. Putroe
Phang is a park that was built by Sultan Iskandar Muda for his queen Putroe
Phang. The park is near from her bathing place, Gunongan. The park was built
because Sultan Iskandar Muda really loved his daughter so that she was not
lonely when Sultan is working. Nowadays,
Aceh’s Goverment has made Putroe Phang
become a tourist attraction that features children’s playground, and also
fishing area.
