About Poh San Teng Temple
Poh San Teng was founded in 1795 by the Chinese Kapitan Chua Su Cheong so that prayers could be held for the people buried on Bukit China, sheltered from wind and rain. It is dedicated to Tua Pek Kong and is sometimes wrongly called the Sam Po Kong temple.
Hang Li Poh's Well is right beside it, and paths lead up the hill into the cemetery. See Melaka attractions for Bukit China itself.
