Sultan of Johor pays fond tribute to the Flintstones cartoon at Istana Mersing


Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Sultan Iskandar of Johor at the Flintstone House in Mersing. — THOMAS YONG/The Star

Busloads of tourists, foreign and local, stop by the perimeter walls of Istana Mersing, or Istana Flintstones, as it’s popularly known, daily.

They are mesmerised by the multi colours and unique shape of the building, which instantly brings to life, for them, the home of the Flintstones, a family immortalised in the popular Hanna-Barbera cartoon.
