Tun Teja Mausoleum, Historical mausoleum in Merlimau, Jasin District, Malaysia.

The white-painted burial site stands amid rice fields, featuring a long entrance path lined with temple pillar trees and yellow-clothed headstones.

The mausoleum contains the remains of Tun Teja Ratna Benggala, wife of Sultan Mahmud Shah, who died while fleeing Portuguese forces in 1511.

The structure reflects traditional Malaysian burial architecture and maintains elements that signify the status of royal family members from the Malacca Sultanate.

Located at Jalan Merlimau, Kampung Tanjong Pinang in Melaka State, the mausoleum remains open to visitors without entrance fees throughout the year.

The story of Tun Teja involves a complex narrative of love potions, political intrigue, and maritime pursuits that shaped the destiny of Malacca.
