Perigi Hang TuahPerigi Hang Tuah (GPS: 2.20005, 102.29695) is an ancient well attributed to the Malay warrior Hang Tuah. It is located in Kampung Duyang, which was where Hang Tuah grew up as a young man. The well was dug by Hang Tuah and his friends. It is still existing today. The area around the well has been well tended, and an interpretive board is placed at the site. The road leading up to the site is called Jalan Hang Mahmud, after Hang Tuah's father.
According to local myth, there is a white crocodile that inhabits the well, which has never dried up, even in the severest drought. The well came under the management of Perbadanan Muzium Melaka and the area has been gazetted as a historic site.
