Standing Stones in Malaysia. This is the site of the tomb of Sheikh Ahmad Majnun. Next to the tomb are various ancient stones or megaliths, thought to date from the second or third century AD.

The most well known are nicknamed the rudder, spoon and sword respectively due to their distinctive shapes. The megaliths are known as 'Living Stones' and some of the town residents swear that they grow taller by one or two inches every year.
