The Tomb of Sultan Hasanuddin
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.
