Bidasari An Ancient Nusantara Legend

Dragons in the sea
Eagles fly the blue skies
Tales upon the winds
Long before the Srivijaya empire moved from Palembang to Kadaram to Negeri Serendah Sekebun Bunga, before the rise of Langkasuka and the Melaka sultanate, a king ruled the ancient kingdom Kembayat Nagara. The King lived in a beautiful palace made of chengal wood and belian wood that would last forever. The roof was seven tiered. The pillars - a thousand in all. The forbidden garden was decorated with areca nut, coconut and kuini trees as well as fragrant flowers.

This was where the greatest love story of Bidasari, famous throughout the Malay Archipelago, began.
