Hang Li Poh's Well

Built in 1459 by the followers of Hang Li Poh, the Chinese princess who married the Sultan of Malacca.

The well never dried up during the days of old and was the only source of water during great droughts. The Dutch enclosed it with stout walls in 1677 to maintain ultimate right to the well.

It has been turned into a wishing well and it is said that those who throw coins into it will return to Malacca time and again.
