Local hero's corpse was hung upside down

Padang Merdeka

A historic place that witnessed many major events. Among which was that the corpse of local hero Tok Janggut Pahlawan Kelantan hung upside down here in 1915. Tok Janggut was crowned local hero as he fought relentlessly with the British during World War 1 to protect his race’s land. Despite defeated and being hung upside down for days, his legendary stories were still being told until today. None of the Malays that lived in Kelantan have not known Tok Janggut’s legendary stories, and they are all very friendly and would happily share the stories to you.
