Bordering with Singapore, Malaysia’s southernmost state of Johor is also the country’s most populous province. The state capital of Johor Bahru is more of a transit point than a tourist hotspot, yet it has some decent attractions making it a worthwhile destination in its own right.
Johor offers a reasonable selection of activities for children. While perhaps not comparable with modern western facilities of a similar nature, the zoo is nevertheless a family favourite. The Tropical Village theme park also gets a big thumbs-up for being the best all-round family attraction. For fun on a budget, the Taman Rekreasi Hutan Bandar public park offer plenty of opportunities for lively or relaxing outdoor activity for all the family.
Johor has a few festivals and events that are exclusive to the state including the Johor International Kite Festival, Nusantara Culture Festival, Johor Arts Festival and the Kuda Kepang Festival. The state also celebrates all of Malaysia’s national public holidays and popular religious festivals including Buddhist, Islamic, Hindu and Christian celebrations.
There’s plenty to see in Johor with the state’s main destinations each offering their own unique sightseeing attractions. The state capital Johor Bahru is blessed with the best selection, with the Sultan Abu Bakar Royal Palace Museum and Sultan Abu Bakar State Mosque among the highlights. The state’s excellent selection of national parks is another major draw, with the impressively large Endau Rompin one of the most popular.
Senai International Airport (JHB), formally Sultan Ismail International Airport, is the chief gateway to both the city of Johor Bahru and the state of Johor. The airport is a compact but modern facility offering a full range of contemporary services and amenities including currency exchange desks and ATMs, lockers, prayer rooms, a nursery room, lounges, shops and restaurants.
