The Legend Of Banyuwangi

Once upon a time, there was a King named Sulahkromo. The

king was helped by a Prime Minister named Raden Sidopekso.
The Prime Minister had a wife named Sri Tanjung. She was so
beautiful that the king really wanted to marry his wife.

One day, the King assigned his Prime Minister to a long

mission. While the Prime Minister was away from his wife, the
King tried to get Sri Tanjung. However he failed and he was
very angry. Thus, when Sidopekso went back, the King told him
that his wife was such an unfaithful wife. Soon the Prime
Minister was very angry with his wife. Sri Tanjung said that it
was untrue but Sidopekso didn't believe her and said that he
would kill her. Then he brought his wife to the river bank.
Before he killed her and threw her into the river, his wife had
said that her innocence would be proven After Sidopekso killed
her. After that, he threw her dead body into the dirty river.

The shocking fact happened not long after that when the river
immediately became clean and began to spread a wonderful
fragrance around. Sidopekso said, "Banyu...Wangi...or
Banyuwangi". This means "fragrant water". Banyuwangi was
born from the proof of noble and sacred love.
