Krueng Aceh or "Sungai Aceh" is one of the rivers located in Aceh province.
Krueng Aceh has a length of approximately 145 kilometers and several tributaries empty into the river body, including Krueng Seulimum, Krueng Jrue, Krueng Keumireun, Krueng Inong, Krueng Leungpaga and Krueng Daroy.
The situation of the capital Sultanate of Aceh Darussalam, when it was very crowded by passing large ships that go back and forth carrying goods trade to the middle of the city area. Even large ships from abroad, can go directly through the Krueng Aceh path through the heart of the city. This is possible, because at that time the Krueng Aceh line was a barrier-free path for the entry of trading vessels and passenger ships. Because, there are no pillars of Peunayong and Pante Pirak bridges standing in the middle of the river at that time.
At the time of Sultan Iskandar Muda, Krueng Aceh was very crowded visited and traversed by large ships carrying goods and passengers. And also very busy visited by ships from abroad, which carry a number of people to trade to Banda Aceh Darussalam.
