Kota Kuala Kedah, for Malaysians, you are sure to read this from your Sejarah (History) before. I managed to see it with my own eyes because it was very near to my boyfriend's grandmother's house.
A recap on its history: It was one of the oldest forts in the peninsula. It gained prominence not only as an administrative and strategic centre, but also as an important regional centre for trade and commerce. It was built during the reign of Sultan Sulaiman Shah II (1602-1620), destroyed and rebuilt many times in the 19th Century.
