Li Hangbaojing, also known as Li Baojing, is located in Malacca, Malaysia. It was excavated by Sultan Mansusha of Malacca for the princess from China and his wife Han. At that time, the well will not dry up. It is said that whoever drinks the water from the well will return to Malacca in the future. It was because of drinking this well water that Zheng He returned to Malacca several times. This legend reflects the good wishes of the local people to welcome Zheng He and hope that Zheng He will come to Malacca more often.

The legend of Li Hangbao's well
Zheng He took Princess Han to Manchuria on his second voyage to the West. Sultan Mansusha is very happy. In order not to wronged the delicate Daming princess, he negotiated with Zheng He and asked him to paint Daming's house. He wants to build a "China Residential Area" for her, which only belongs to Han.
After the house was built, Zheng He found it particularly inconvenient to draw water here, so he had to carry a bucket of fresh water to far away places. In order to make the princess live in peace of mind, Zheng He ordered his explorers to find a water source not far from the princess's residential area and dug a well. When it was first hit, the well water was muddy, and the prospector thought he had made a mistake in the geographical location, so he blamed himself and was anxious to find another place.
Zheng He took his time, scooped up a ladle of water and drank it regardless. Miraculously, after Zheng He finished drinking, the water in the well gradually became clear, and everyone in the place began to cheer. They all think that Zheng He is immortal and very capable. In memory of Zheng He, Sultan Mansusha named him "Li Hangbao Well".
When Princess Han was alive, this well was not open to the public, but only used by the princess. Later, with the passage of time, after the princess left, Li Hang Pojing was gradually opened to the outside world, and the story of Zheng He and this Li Hang Pojing was also widely circulated. Many people say that this well is Fukui. Just take a sip, you will know the direction, and then return to Li Hang well.
Because there was no sailing at that time, Zheng He made seven voyages to the Western Ocean and came back here five times. It must be because he drank the water. More and more people came here, and Li Hang's treasure well was also spread to the gods. Later, some people even said that this well water can cure all diseases.
