Ayer Keroh

Ayer Keroh (also written as Air Keroh, translated as murky water) is a town situated in Melaka Tengah District, Malacca, Malaysia. Formerly part of a virgin forest with a quiet village, it was established by the state government in the late 1960s as a satellite town of Malacca City (then Malacca Town) with housing, industrial and recreational areas, to solve the housing issues of Malacca Town and to curb the state's brain drain phenomenon.

This town is the seat of the state government since 2006, being the home of the state secretariat building complex – Seri Negeri complex. It is also home to the country's oldest artificial lake, originally built as a water reservoir during the British colonial era. In 2010, Ayer Keroh along with few neighbouring towns of Batu Berendam, Bemban and Durian Tunggal formed the Hang Tuah Jaya municipality.
