Perigi Batu Pahat (Batu Pahat Well)
"
The historical well that gives the district its name. Besides this attraction, the beach, though is not suitable for swimming, is a nice ground for fishing and to enjoy the cool air."
Perigi Batu Pahat (Batu Pahat Well) is an ancient landmark which is believed to have given Batu Pahat its name. It is believed that this crude well was dug as far back as the 16th century, by Siamese warriors to collect fresh water.
This well was previously known as Perigi Siam (Siamese Well).The well, which has been dug in a rocky area is said to have led to the name Batu Pahat which literally translates to 'chiselled rock'.
This beach lies in a quaint little village called Punggor. Though not particularly suitable for swimming, it offers a serene environment for those who seek a place to relax.
