What to do and see in Johor Bahru District, Johor: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks
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.

The temple is located in the midst of town area. However, the temple and surrounding looked cleanly maintained. The brightly painted temple tower/gopuram looked beautiful from outside with ornate carvings and devotional artwork. After prayer, find peaceful to spent some time inside. A must visit in Johor Bahru.

Surprising that the station is situated in the shopping mall. I have been to shopping malls several times but never noticed that the station is just right at the corner.

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.
