10 Things to do Good for Couples in Johor Bahru District That You Shouldn't Miss
A bargain shopper’s delight is just across the causeway in Malaysia, with numerous bus and train services available to ferry travelers across the border. The largest and most popular malls are easily accessible from the checkpoint and offer a blend of name-brand and knockoff shopping. Dig deeper and you’ll appreciate the city’s differences, good and bad, from Singapore, though rumors of rampant crime are overblown. Museums and places of worship abound, along with good dining for any budget. A new premium outlet mall opened just outside the city in December 2011, and keep an eye on the new Legoland Malaysia, slated to open at the end of 2012.

Booked a 60 mins mood massage with Breeze Spa during my stay in Amari Hotel. The ambience was bright, cosy and relaxing. The butterfly pea tea served before the massage and ginger tea served after the treatment were both refreshing. The masseur Ms Farhana was friendly and attentive. We had a brief consultation and I conveyed what I wanted. She paid special attention to those areas that I had specified on. The massage was indeed dreamy and so relaxing that I actually dozed off. After the massage, my tired and aching legs were good for more shopping again.

Strategically located in the heart of the city and only a stone's throw from the customs and immigration checkpoint, Johor Bahru City Square stands out as a central landmark in JB. With its more than 200 retailers, it offers a host of fashion, entertainment and restaurants. All catered to wow the senses and satisfy the needs. Rush in when the doors open at 10am for breakfast, then head out and start your shopping adventure of clothes, shoes, bags, trinklets, toiletries, electronic toys. Everything the heart desires. Unique to Johor Bahru City Square is the Inner City, an eclectic mix of smallish fashion and accessory shops plus restaurants housed in a tight, quaint setting. Always a firm favorite of the "NOW" generation. After many hours of shopping, rest the feet in one of the numerous restaurants and cafes or indulge in a soothing foot massage, then go on to treat the rest of the body at a salon.

Singapore to Bukit Indah We took CW3 from Jurong East bus terminal which is next to Jurong East MRT to Tuas checkpoint. It costs SGD4.30 per adult using ezlink card. If paid by cash, it is SGD$4.50. The ticket shows From : Jurong East and To: Larkin Terminal. After clearing Singapore immigration, at the exit, turn right and walk to the end of the road and join the queue for CW buses. You can take either CW3 or CW6 buses to go to JB checkpoint (CIQ). There are 2 rows for JB immigration. It is separated by a narrow road. If the counters behind are manned, you can also get your passport stamped there. After clearing JB immigration (CIQ) walk straight and you will see a CW staff sitting at one of the bus bay. You can tell him that you want to go Bukit Indah and he will tell you to continue walking straight and join the queue for big sign with No. 1. It is for CW3 bus. Look for signboard which shows Bukit Indah. Sit on the left in the bus and about 20mins into the ride, you will see Aeon Mall. Alight at the sheltered bus stop at the same side of Aeon Mall. Bukit Indah to CIQ At the same sheltered bus stop which you alighted earlier, wait for CW3 bus. Ask the driver if CW3 is going to CIQ. It costs RM5 per adult. The ticket will show Dari: Jusco Bukit Indah and Ke: Jurong East Interchange. Some CW3 bus may be going to Perling Mall. Do not board.

We visited Thomas Land / Hello Kitty world at Puteri Harbour by WTS Travel from Singapore. It had a few shops/restaurants around. (If your a super hero fan, there’s a DC themed cafe there that serve dinner and snacks in a plastic Batman case!!! AND we had 6 drinks, 6 large meals and it cost us $40 Malaysia dollars) Hello kitty “land” was disappointing. It was small, few little theme/sing songs, one working ride but for the nostalgia, it was worth it. Thomas land on the top floor was awesome. Good rides for the kids, make sure you don’t go on school holidays as it does get busy. The middle floor is bob the builder, Pingu, Angelina ballerina. The Thomas show is a must because the performers look like they need a bottle of wine to get through the rest of the day and the mechanical Thomas was hilarious as it needs updating! We had to spend 6 hours here due to coach times but if you drove yourself, maybe 2/3 hours top.

Even for a visit during daytime, it is a nice call. In half an hour you can explore the statues and take good photos. At night, the attraction has a light show.
