Sultan Hasanuddin (1626-1670) was famous for his exceptional bravery in his struggle against Dutch encroachment in South Sulawesi. His tomb and those of other kings of Gowa are located in a secluded cemetery not far from Sungguminasa, about 8 kms from Ujung Pandang.
The huge crypts are grey 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 a show of pomp and splendor.
Not far from the tombs is the oldest mosque in the area, built in 1603 and known as the Katangka Mosque.
