**********

Makam Mahsuri (Mahsuri Tomb or Mausoleum) lies in a village about 12 kilometres from Kuah.

This shrine is in honour of a fair maiden who lived on Pulau Langkawi more than two hundreds years ago.

Accused unjustly of adultery, she was executed with a special kris. According to legend, she bled white blood and in her dying breath, she laid a curse on the island that it would henceforth not , prosper for seven generations.

Fact or fiction, the seven generations have come to an end and Langkawi today enjoys the prosperity of accelerated development and ever increasing tourist arrivals.
