The Epic of Bidasari, or Syair Bidasari, is a charming poem, set in a country called Inderapura (probably before the European adventures in Asia), It has all the ingredients of an enchanting fairy tale; a beautiful princess, an evil queen, sorcery, magic, a handsome king and with the ultimate happy ending. Like all such tales, its origins were probably oral and has existed in different versions throughout southeast Asia.
