Batu Hampar of Bukit Melawati

The mystery of the Batu Hampar,
Bedrock or Execution rock, some 5 feet by 5 and 1 feet thick,
where some believe it's the place where traitors
and a palace maid was beheaded for adultery,
while others says it's where the late Sultan of Selangor,
HRH Sultan Abdul Samad sits on
for a game of chess
with a good view of Kuala Selangor below

    I would rather believe that it is a place for the Sultan to relax.
