Many castles, ports and freshwater wells are also well preserved on this island. Known as the birthplace of the Indonesian Malay language, this cultural site is popular as a literature tourism site.

His works include the famous poem Gurindam Dua Belas, which set the ground basis for the development of Indonesian literature.
