Mahsuri's Tomb, White marble mausoleum in Langkawi District, Malaysia.

The mausoleum features a traditional square marble tomb surrounded by gardens and contains exhibits detailing the life of Mahsuri in adjacent buildings.

Built to commemorate Mahsuri, who was executed in 1819 after being falsely accused of adultery, the site marks a significant period in Langkawi's history.

According to local tradition, Mahsuri's death with white blood flowing from her wounds proved her innocence and led to her curse upon Langkawi.

The mausoleum complex charges entrance fees of RM10 for international visitors and RM5 for Malaysian citizens, with children receiving half-price admission.

The site displays portraits of Mahsuri's seventh-generation descendants, marking the end of her curse that predicted misfortune for Langkawi for seven generations.
