==Name== Lingga derives its name from the profile of {{ill|Mount Daik|id|Gunung Daik}} which is shaped like the Hindu [[lingam]], often interpreted as a phallic symbol. This mountain has three sharp teeth at its peak; one of them seems to have broken off at its base, and it was immortalised by Malay poets as the symbol of durability. The poem is Pulau Pandan jauh ke tengah,<br /> Gunung Daik bercabang tiga,<br /> Hancur badan dikandung tanah,<br /> Budi yang baik dikenang juga. By nuar Nearby are the remains of the fort of Benteng Bukit Cening, overlooking the sea. The cannons are still lined up, as if they were awaiting another enemy attack.
