This replica is not stated when it was built.  It seem that this Water Wheel is long not functioning.

What happen to this tourist attractive place?  Why the Water Wheel is not rotating ?  Rumours say, it is because too costly to repair the part.    Sadly and shame, if local Government really want to put these area as tourist center, then it should put some budget on rebuilding and maintenance. Personally, I felt this place is very beautiful, it was built beside the Malacca river.  When you walk along the walk path, you can see the scenic view of this Water Wheel, and at far end there is Eye on Malaysia sitting at the mouth of Malacca river.  And also, the Maritime museum.

In a walking distance, you will find the old Dutch colonial remaining – Stadthuys.  Take your time, to enjoy the beautiful view of Malacca river and the old historic buildings.
