The Sultan’s Bed Chamber

The Sultan’s bedchamber was a highly restricted place, reserved for only the Sultan of Melaka. One could only enter it with the Sultan’s consent. Even the Permaisuri did not have the freedom to enter the chamber unless allowed by the Sultan.

The main reason for such restrictions was to emphasize the Sultan’s royal status and to ensure his safety whole he rested.

The bedchamber had everything that the Sultan needed. It was the place where the royal clothes were kept. Decorations and souvenirs of the highest quality, mostly gifts from other kingdoms and merchants, were also kept there.
