PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit

Car racing venue
Sights & Landmarks
The Sepang International Circuit is a venue for motorsports events as well as go-karting and tours. It has been open since 1999 and boasts of event facilities. The track is also popular for cycling, though the entry system sometimes causes long queues leading to waiting times that eat into valuable cycling time. Despite this issue, SIC offers a unique experience worth trying.
I was here for the Super GT show and it was absolutely AMAZING! The cars, the speed, the atmosphere — everything was on point. You can feel the adrenaline the moment the engines start roaring. The whole event was so well-organized, and the crowd’s energy made it even more thrilling. Seeing those powerful machines up close at Sepang Circuit was a dream come true. If you love racing, you have to experience it in person here. I’m still buzzing from the excitement — already looking forward to the next round! 🏎️🔥🇯🇵

Wonderful experience. If you are a motogp or formula 1 fan, then its a must visit. They offer a circuit tour for a reasonable price and very polite. We were there when a local track day was ongoing, got to see some fast motorcycle action live.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Had an unforgettable time at Sepang International Circuit for the Porsche Carrera Asia Cup! The atmosphere was electric, and the access to the paddock and starting grid made it a truly immersive experience. The lounge food was exceptional—great flavors and quality that made the day even better. Everything was well organized, and the entire event was top-notch.

Shopping
Art Galleries
Step into the whimsical world of Alive 3D Art Gallery, a quirky and popular attraction in Port Dickson. This trick art museum features 50 interactive illustrations across five different theme zones, allowing visitors to pose and take photos within mind-bending optical illusion paintings and murals. From Adventure to Dark Art, talented artists from China have created an immersive experience where guests can touch, hug, and interact with the exhibits for unlimited photo opportunities.
It's a nice experience to visit this gallery. There are around 50 life like paintings. The best impact is from a certain angle, which is shown on the wall for reference. The cost might feel slightly on the higher side per entry. There are some souvenirs for purchase at the end. One has to open shoes to go in the gallery. The facility servers and ticket person were very friendly. Loved the experience. A group going in or a family going in will have more fun. Payment can be made via cash, QR, and / or cash Adequate parking is seen nearby.

Been here around five years ago it was so cool. Now it's not much. Almost unrecognizable because the greenery at the front facade is now gone. Inside, some arts are a bit damaged which spoiled the photo effect. Apart from the art gallery, there are carnival games, claw machines, souvenir stall and waffles stall as well.

An interesting place with 3D paintings for visitors to take photographs with. The staffs were friendly but didn't follow us to suggest how best to take photographs. We were left to investigate how to pose. Luckily there were some photographs on the wall that showed us how to pose for real life effect. It's a place worth visiting. Entrance ticket cost RM25 for adults, RM20 for senior citizens and children. We spent almost one hour there and came out satisfied with our photography results. Youngsters should be more imaginative and more flexible with difficult postures when taking pictures. There aren't many people on weekdays so taking pictures was easy.
Christine V — Google review
The entrance fees for Malaysian adult is RM 20 and for child is RM 15 (12 and below). It also offers combo package (3D Alive + Wild Wild West Indoor Theme Park). We just chose 3D Alive Gallery. It has 3 floors and there are about 50 pieces of 3D arts pictures to be actioned with. Just be ready with your camera! There's no staff to take your pictures, you have to take it by yourself. Some pictures have shining lines when the flash is on /bcoz of the lights in the room. Others are ok. Overall it is good to have this kind of entertainment around this area. Keep it up!

It was quite fun here. We have take almost 1 hour to take photo inside and quite a lot of different 3D pic. After that, we have bought a fridge magnet which attached with out picture over there with RM18 for one. During the waiting period for our magnet, we went to nearby restoran to have our lunch. It was ready after we had our lunch.
Spark L — Google review
A must-visit for families, groups of friends and couples even! The only place I'd recommend to visit in Port Dickson as other places of attractions didn't seem that appealing. It was for me, worth the RM20 I paid. Photos turned out well too. The place is not that big. Just 3-storeys and you can expect to end your "tour" in about an hour (unless of course, u spent much time adjusting your positions in terms of capturing the shots - there are pointers in how to capture the best shots). Do check out this place!

Evan W — Google review
Visitation Seremban is the oldest church in the Archdiocese of Kuala Lumpur and throughout its history, many priests and religious have come forth. The church also has many interesting shops surrounding it for your food, clothing and groceries needs. There are no other Catholic Churches in Seremban so this is the place to go throughout your stay for spiritual nourishment. The church is located in the heart of Seremban, so you can’t miss it.
Fr K — Google review
Know about this Catholic Church when looking for attraction in Seremban and know that this church is quite a historical building. Building are maintained quite well and still looking astonishing for a hundred over years building. Passby and saw lot of people doing prayers and looked quite blessed. A beautiful and peaceful church at Seremban.

Did a quick stop by the Church of the Visitation, it was always 12afternoon when I visit yet the Sunday Sermon was still in session, so just took a few pictures and went off. The church itself was repainted (if I am not wrong) it looks more nicer now compared to ten years or more last time. It has those colonial design and consider a historical landmark in Seremban.
Edwin C — Google review
Heard this church has been around for over a century in Seremban Town. We came here for a friend 's son wedding ceremony. Though the building looks old, it has been well maintained. Probably, it has been given a 'face lift', and the end result is just great with the'brightly lit' ambience around. Looks like the fittings are still the original and are still in good condition.

Beautiful 18th century building with a prominent facade and a towering spire that's tall enough to make you wonder how they would have built it in that day and age. Peaceful holy vibes from this place.

The Army Museum Port Dickson is a must-visit attraction for history enthusiasts and photography lovers alike. Located in the district of Sirusa, this museum boasts an impressive collection of war-related artifacts, including army vehicles like tanks and fighter jets. Visitors can explore a subterranean tunnel that provides unique photo opportunities for social media.
I went here with my friends last week and we love this place. I really like how they maintain and preserve most of the artifacts. It was very well kept. A good place to drop by with kids where they can gain lots of historical knowledge. Also the ticket price is quite cheap at about RM2 per entry.
Parimila — Google review
Limited parking within premises, so be there early. They open at 10 a.m. Tickets was RM 2 / adult. Beside the ticketing counter was a green screen backdrop for them to take your photo which will edited to the museum background, printed 1 large & 1 miniature sized for RM 60 as a souvenir, ready to collected when you leave. There were some decommissioned feet of planes, helicopters, armoured cars, artillery cannons, bikes, trains & monuments on display in the yard. Inside the gallery area is air conditioned with antique weapon of wars & historical narration on display. My first visit and is recommended place to visit.
CH Y — Google review
Really impressed by the place! Entry at RM2 for adult. Limited parking, just park by the road side or opposite the place at near residence area. The place is interesting with indoor displays of gallery and an underground walk of the CPM communist party of Malayan history. Many showcase of the weapons, war machines like tanks, helicopter, even train. Spent more than an hour at this place. If really keen into the history I think you can have 2 or more hours here.

Here’s a concise 200‑character review: Free entry with RM 2 fee since Jan 1 2025. Outdoor tanks, helicopters, military gear, indoor galleries on Malaysian Army history, plus a recreated tunnel. A fun, educational hidden gem.

Great place for learning, very under rated museum. They introduced and explanined alot about the ATM tha wasnt taught in history classes in school. Galleries were sectioned into few categories ranging from Melakan Sultanate, British and Dutch colonisation and also the Malayan troops. They also introduced the generals as well. Many weapons, artifacts, documents, tanks etc were showcased. It would be better if the poster had english explanations as i di see some foreign tourist struggling to understand without translation. Overrall recommended to visit esp with teene or young adults

In addition to ostriches, visitors can encounter peacocks, jungle fowls, monkeys, and various farm animals in open paddocks shaded by large trees.
Had a pleasant visit and fun experience at 𝗣𝗗 𝗢𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗙𝗮𝗿𝗺. Ostriches are the highlights where we get to touch and race with the Ostrich too. We can feed the farm animals such as cows, goats, sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs and many more.  Kids enjoy the train ride, horse carriage ride and horse ride. This place is well maintained and staff is friendly too.

+ You can park for free, but spots are limited. + Adult admission is RM25, while children under 12 are RM20. Animal feed is available for purchase at RM9. + There are tons of fun family activities here like feeding animals, playing with guinea pigs and rabbits, riding a pony at Cowboy Place, cat's home, and checking out the dinosaur village. + It's not just for fun. this place educates us about animal life habitats. The staff will help you out with explanations. + Everyone here is super friendly and helpful. + If you wanna try Sate Ostrich, you can also order it at their Café. + The restroom is accessible. Additionally, there are ATV and archery activities, but I am unsure of their availability. It seems they may not be well maintained. The same goes for their herbal oasis. All in all, it's a fantastic spot for family fun when you're in Port Dickson. Don't forget to bring an umbrella since we'll be walking around in this open area.
Mo S — Google review
One of the must-go destination when you are going holiday in Port Dickson. Although it is named "Ostrich Farm", there are also lots of animals such as guinea pig, farm animals, and even cats and dogs. There are even some events there such as Ostrich Race. Moreover, you can also hand-feed them, but you need to add on extra money to buy their foods. Overall, I had an enjoyable moment there. Recommended 👍

Quite different from the few years ago picture which shared on review. The farm doesnt seem to do so well. Anyway my kids enjoyed the farm since they grew up already. Great exposure for todays children. Desaru farmhouse seem to have better upkeep. Cant see myself to hit the 4th star.

Fun place to bring your kids! You can spend around 1 to 2 hours as the place is not that big. Theres ostrich, goats, snakes, rabbits, chickens, snakes, cats and dogs. Theres also a paid train ride. However it seems that some of the facilities are not well maintained. But still a great place to go! You can get the ticket at the counter.

Outer side looks rundown but thats what makes it looks less commercialised. We were greeted with a bunch of goats thats where we can exposed the children to the authentic farm smell. Next theres a few healthy looking ostriches and an instructor that was so dedicated with the knowledge of ostrich explained patiently to us about the farm animals. I can see the uncle really sayang her ostriches. My girl enjoy the feeding of animals a lot. There was a 11.30 show, added to the fun was a few excited children decided to race with the ostriches. Of course the ostrich won. On top of that i also do see 2 vet personnels were checking on the animals, can see well maintained. Highly recommended to children or to whoever that comes to PD. We spent about 1 hour plus here.

Cape Rachado Lighthouse

Mentioned on 
2 lists 
Sights & Landmarks
Historic Sites
Lighthouses
Cape Rachado Lighthouse, located within the 80-hectare Cape Rachado Forest Reserve, is a historic whitewashed lighthouse offering stunning views of the cape. The area has a rich history, with a naval battle between the Portuguese and Dutch armadas taking place in 1606. Since 1921, it has been a nature reserve and serves as an egg-laying site for turtles and a migratory bird stopover.
The main trail is asphalt Road. I would consider this walking, but the uphill is nice as plenty of people came here to exercise. The view of the lighthouse was beautiful, but unfortunately there wasn't a clear view of the ocean from the lighthouse as its surrounded by trees. Its well shaded, and even though we started late at 10:30 am it was not too hot (probably thanks to the rain earlier in the morning). Nevertheless its a nice relaxing walk.
Raphael W — Google review
A Peaceful Walk to the Lighthouse Walking through the forest trail to reach the lighthouse was truly a refreshing experience. The path itself is surrounded by beautiful greenery, and the air feels clean and calming, making the journey as enjoyable as the destination. Although I was a little disappointed that visitors are not allowed to enter the lighthouse (as the security staff mentioned), the walk itself made up for it. Along the way, you’ll find several hiking paths branching off into the forest, perfect if you enjoy exploring. One of these trails even leads down to a quiet beach, which adds an extra layer of adventure to the trip. The entire area is free of charge, which is a wonderful bonus for anyone looking for a relaxing outdoor activity without spending anything. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to enjoy nature, unwind, and take in the surroundings, even if the lighthouse itself remains off-limits.
Baron F — Google review
Not bad at all. Just very short walk to get to the light house, the view in photo. Walkway is properly tar also mostly covered with trees so it is very friendly to anyone even for the kids. Free entrance for now. Parking can be limited. Oh and there are so many beaches nearby, with different view. Happy exploring.

Was not expecting a hike - about 700m or 800m to the lighthouse which ended up not being open. I encounted some monkeys on the way up which seem to be eating and minding its own business. There were multiple hiking trail that leads down to the beach. The light house was ordinary. Recommended to hiking fanatics.
WorstDad — Google review
For first timer, the view of the lighthouse is quite impressive. However, at the base on the lighthouse as per the view towards the horizon is just mediocre as it has been blocked by trees and branches. Was told 30 years ago, the view was stunning. There were no trees. Only rocks. Now the trees were overgrown.
Gary O — Google review
We came for hiking the jungle trail. It was quite tough with several uphill sections which will leave the average guy breathless. Going up the Batu Putih formation was quite a challenge as one has to pull oneself up using the ropes provided. Coming down was especially unnerving. But the scenery of the sea and during the walk was spectacular. The lighthouse was built in 1863 and was very nice. The walk started at Villea Hotel car park and took us more than 3 hours
Cher K — Google review
Great place for mini hiking (120 above ground level only). Elevated not too steep either. Distance less than 1km up the mini hill. There are few jungle trails, but we didn't try. Lighthouse was built in 1863. Very historical and meaningful. Too bad, can only view the lighthouse from outside.

Hiking starts at different times depending on whether it's a weekday or weekend, with an entrance fee of RM5 per person.
The hiking is a bit challenging for beginners. Not suitable for raining season because will be slippery. Not so suitable for children as some of the steps quit high. Very nice scenery & natural view. Overall, very satisfy 👍🏻

Although the elevation gain is 827meters its not that taxing because of the 4km distance and thanks to the dense forest for shade and breeze. The ticket counter opens at 7:30am and its good time to start your hiking so that you can be back before lunch time. The view at the peak is not 360 due to trees but you can still have a look at the mountains.

Nice trails for a Sunday hike: we went up the hill from the Northern side, seems a very popular trail in good condition (when it is not raining). It took us about 2hs to reach the peak. After a little break we went back into the valley using the trail into North-East direction. The trail is a bit more difficult. To get back to the starting point we had to walk about two kilometres along the busy national road. In total, it took us around 5hs (2hs up, 3hs down), plus an additional hour for relax and recharge at the peak.

Been here before, few years back maybe 5 or years ago. It used to be better. It's another good example to demonstrate the importance of maintenance and proper maintenance. The outlet is ageing. Most of the shops in there need a major face-lift to demonstrate that it's a premium outlet. Washrooms are good indicator too.

Not a bad place. 4km detour from the tool. I didn't come here for shopping but rather just to kill a few hours before going to airport and lunch. Nice design and well kept quiet place on weekday working hours. Interesting point was the Coach shop in a b747 airplane.
James — Google review
We stop by this Outlet just by chance, as we were passing by on our way back from attending a wedding reception. Obviously, my wife just HAD to drop by... The Outlet Building was only one floor, but sprawled over quite a huge area. The design seemed to be of Dutch Colonial themed or inspired, and they looked quite magnificent. I was impressed by the giant windmill located in the centre, which was a major attraction for the visitors. There was also a carousel or merry-go-round, but was not patronized somehow. Most visitors appeared to be contented to just sitting around, soaking in the festive atmosphere... The Chinese New Year festive feeling was still in the air. Hence the patrons were mostly chinese families, who had come here as part of their holidays and celebrations. There was also a malay wedding ceremony happening at the Banquet Hall, with various mix of people attending the event. Other than that, I didnt see much shopping going on, or maybe it was because the CNY sale was already over?

Most historic river in Malaysia. Walk along the river to feel how the river has been shaped by history and it’s prominence in the past

The Malacca River is such a beautiful spot, especially in the evening. Walking along the riverside is relaxing with all the colorful lights, cafes, and murals that bring the area to life. It’s scenic during the day too, but at night it feels extra magical. Definitely one of the must-visit attractions in Malacca.

Sungai Melaka is a fun place to visit, especially for a river walk or boat ride. It can be very hot during the day, so bring water and a hat. The views are nice, with colorful buildings, street art, and cafes along the river. Best to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the lights come on. A relaxing and beautiful spot to enjoy in Melaka.

Have a lovely leisure walk along the Malacca River in the late afternoon. There are some souvenirs and beverage shop open. Clean and tidy pedestrian walkway with some awesome painted murals on the building wall.

I have visited Melaka a number of times. It was one of our family's vacation spots. The river was something I had never given much thought to until I watched the movie Entrapment a few years ago. My curiosity was piqued, and I paid a little more attention on the river's beauty this time. The river is most beautiful to behold in the evening when there are boats selling passes and night lights along the river. A shot stroll in the evening while taking in the scenery of some of the historical buildings along the river. Date visited: 8th January 2024

28 Dec 2022: Walk along the river bank, stop at a cafe or detour to Jonker Street or Dutch Square; this is a place you want to be…plenty of happening. 08 Dec 2019: Walk down the nostalgic heart of Malacca and reach out to many historical places. Take a stroll in the evening…the night scene is very colorful.

A Pawsitively Perfect Husky Haven! If you’re a husky lover (or just a dog enthusiast), The Huskitory in Melaka is an absolute must-visit. From the moment we stepped in, we were blown away by how spotless the space was— clean and well-maintained interaction area. The huskies themselves are stars here. Each one is happy, well-groomed, and surprisingly calm—even during playtime! They’re clearly well-socialized. What truly sets The Huskitory apart is its team. The staff are not only friendly but knowledgeable about every husky’s personality and history. They took time to share stories about each dog, answered all our questions, and even gave tips on interacting with them safely. If you’re looking for a heartwarming, stress-free experience with some of the most beautiful huskies around, The Huskitory is worth every minute. We left with a pocket full of photos and a huge smile. 🐾

Highly recommended! First time experience at Huskitory. Staff was so friendly and helpful at explaining and handling the husky they look after. Great service from mahesh and Jane. The dogs were also so well behaved and friendly. Food can be purchased at 3 packs for Rm5 or 1 pack at Rm2. Phototaking services also available from Rm35 to Rm55.

At first, the experience seemed nice, but it quickly felt very orchestrated. The music was far too loud, and we just wanted a relaxed time with the dogs. Unfortunately, the dogs were made to “perform” constantly for photos instead of being allowed to rest naturally. We were also repeatedly asked to buy treats, and even after saying no, they still brought out puppies. One older puppy (just a few months old) was given to me, and a brand-new baby was placed with my sister. When the attendant told us to “move closer” several times for a photo, the older pup suddenly bit the baby’s ear, taking the tip off. It was an awful moment, and we left soon after, hoping both pups were okay. One of the dogs also had its toenails cut extremely short, which looked painful. It’s also worth noting this isn’t actually a café — there’s no coffee or food served. We were given cold water (which was appreciated) and the air conditioning was good. The majority of the dogs were lovely and well-behaved, but overall the experience felt more about photo ops than genuine animal care or guest comfort.

To be honest I think the price is quite pricey and the treats weren’t included, rm2 each pack. Many of the huskies were quite aggressive and only come to you if you have treats. Photo in frame were excluded (RM35-55) . The time felt very fast and many of the dogs were tired so they just sleep on the floor

I had a fantastic experience at Huskitory! The facility is well maintained, creating a clean and welcoming environment. Playing with the huskies was incredibly fun, they’re so friendly, energetic, and well-trained. Time really flies when you're spending time with these adorable huskies. Highly recommend for anyone who loves dogs and wants a memorable, enjoyable experience!

The Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum, located in the Chinatown area of Melaka, is a must-visit attraction that offers a glimpse into the history and culture of local Chinese Malays. Housed in an ornate home that once belonged to the wealthy Chan family, this museum showcases artifacts and exhibits celebrating the Peranakan culture, which is a blend of Chinese and Malay influences.
Really great house heritage museum. Gorgeous and well curated house with great history. Also, staff is really friendly and professional. They have free English tours at 11am on Saturday and free Chinese tours at 3pm on Saturday. However, I didn’t arrive at the time. Instead, I used the free WiFi and free audio tour guide that is provided by QR codes throughout the house. There is also a place to refill water, bathrooms, and certain areas with seating and air conditioning. I would spend about 1 hour exploring here.

Very well maintained heritage museum. The introduction was short and simple but enough to tell the do's and don't. Staircase to the second floor for further viewing is a bit steepzl, some may not like it. I don't recommend for children less than 4 years old. At least child is able to understand and don't run around. Photography is allow, BUT NO FLASH! QR codes to scan to learn more. There's also a souvenir shop just before you exit the house.

A well preserved house turned museum in Melaka!! The place is located in the heart of the Old Town and very accessible by car or foot. And, the museum is still owned and managed by the family. The museum offers a glimpse of Baba & Nyonya life back in the old days. You can follow their story by listening to the audio guide that you can access from your mobile. Each story is short yet packed with information. The ticket costs 25RM for foreigners.

Visited this place on a Saturday and it was packed with visitors, especially tourists from abroad. The house’s structure reminded me a lot of my grandfather’s home built in the 1900s, featuring many similar design details, including a hidden opening hole on the first floor that overlooks the main entrance downstairs. Entrance fee is RM 25 per adult. Overall, it’s a great spot to explore the rich customs and heritage of the Baba Nyonya community in Malaysia.

Beautiful and splendid museum exploring the local history of Peranakans in Malacca through the lens of a prominent Chan family. Adult tix costs only 25MYR and we spend a good 1h+ exploring the (surprisingly vast) museum and listening to the Audio guides. It was also a welcome reprieve from the heat!

Diana P — Google review
The Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum is a treasured cultural heritage site in Malacca's heart. It authentically recreates the lives of the Peranakan Chinese, a group that emerged from the long-term integration of early Chinese immigrants with the local Malaysian community. Formerly the century-old residence of the Zeng family, the museum was converted into a museum in 1985, to systematically preserve and display their unique architecture, furnishings, clothing, and everyday items. Guided tours offer insightful explanations of the social structure, religious beliefs, and customs of the Baba and Nyonya people, providing valuable insights into and understanding Malaysia's diverse cultural landscape.

We went here for a culture and heritage. If you go to Malacca without visiting Jonker, then you are not really visiting Malacca. The market is quite long and have a lot of items available from foods, souvenirs and clothes. Beside hawker stall, few shops are also open. The vibe here is very nice, lot of people, crowded but it's good tho. Parking can be struggle around this area so make sure to plan your arrival well. From here you also can walk to others historical spots like afamosa, makam hang kasturi, museum, menara jam and stadhuys. Some items here are quite rare too. The view are also very nice, classic architecture and wonderful experience

Only active from Friday to Sunday, from morning until late night, but absolutely worth planning around. I had the pleasure of experiencing the place both during the day and at night, and it was incredible each time. It’s a wonderful place and a fantastic experience — an absolute must if you’re in Melaka. There’s so much to see, eat, drink, and shop. It’s a shopper’s paradise with unique goods, amazing food, and incredibly low prices. Overwhelming in the best way possible, with endless options and choices.

Jonker Street (Jalan Hang Jebat, Melaka) Located in the heart of Melaka’s Chinatown, Malaysia Jonker Street, officially known as Jalan Hang Jebat, is the vibrant soul of Melaka’s Chinatown — a lively stretch famous for its night market, heritage shophouses, antique stores, cafés, and street food. Once home to wealthy Peranakan (Straits Chinese) families, the street’s architecture reflects centuries of cultural fusion — Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, and British influences all intertwined in ornate façades and wooden shutters. By day, Jonker Street is a charming lane of antique dealers, art galleries, craft shops, and traditional bakeries, selling everything from vintage cameras and porcelain to pineapple tarts and handmade jewelry. When night falls, the entire street transforms into one of Malaysia’s most beloved night markets — buzzing with food stalls, music, and lights. Visitors can savour local favourites like chicken rice balls, cendol, Nyonya laksa, satay celup, and fried radish cake, while browsing through rows of souvenirs and handmade crafts. The air is filled with laughter, the aroma of grilled skewers, and the rhythm of buskers performing under lanterns. Beyond its food and fun, Jonker Street is also a living museum — a place where heritage, commerce, and community coexist. Nearby attractions include Cheng Hoon Teng Temple (Malaysia’s oldest Chinese temple), Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum, and Kampung Kling Mosque, all within walking distance. Today, Jonker Street remains the beating heart of Melaka’s old town — a symbol of multicultural Malaysia and a must-visit for anyone wanting to experience its historic charm, creative energy, and timeless street life.

Jonker Street, officially known as Jalan Hang Jebat, sits at the heart of Malacca’s historic Chinatown a lively blend of heritage, culture, and chaos in the best possible way. By day, its narrow lanes reveal rows of centuries-old shophouses, once home to Peranakan merchants, now transformed into cafés, antique stores, and quirky boutiques. By night, Jonker Street transforms into a vibrant night market where the air fills with the scent of grilled satay, chicken rice balls, and the sweet smoke of coconut pancakes.

Sights & Landmarks
Observation Decks & Towers
Experience the breathtaking views of Melaka from the Taming Sari Tower (Malacca Tower), a modern structure with a rotating observation deck that rises to 80 meters. Whether you visit during the day or at night, you'll be treated to a seven-minute ride offering panoramic vistas of the city. From St. Paul's Hill to Melaka River and beyond, this experience provides an opportunity to spot numerous landmarks.
If you want to enjoy a stunning panoramic view of one of Malaysia’s most beautiful cities, this observatory tower is an experience you absolutely shouldn’t miss. Located right on the city’s famous central street, the tower lifts you nearly 100 feet above ground—high enough to appreciate the city skyline, coastline, and surrounding landmarks from a completely new perspective. One of the most unique features of this tower is its rotating seating deck. Visitors remain seated while the platform slowly revolves, giving everyone a full 360-degree view without needing to move around. The entire ride lasts around seven minutes, and it’s both smooth and comfortable. For those who want a closer look at distant sights, binoculars are available for rent at the counter. The experience is very well organized from start to finish. Check-in and ticketing are quick and efficient, and the staff are friendly and helpful, making the visit even more enjoyable. The checkout process is just as smooth, so you never feel rushed or confused. For the best experience, I highly recommend visiting in the evening. Watching the sun set over the city while the lights gradually turn on is absolutely breathtaking. If you stay for a later ride, the night views are equally beautiful, with the entire city glowing beneath you. Tickets can be purchased easily at the counter without any extra fees, making it a convenient and worthwhile stop for tourists, families, and photography lovers. Overall, it’s a memorable and scenic attraction that truly highlights the charm of the city.

Initially, I was a bit scared, but once it started moving, the ride was so smooth that I didn’t even realize we had reached the top! The view from the top was absolutely stunning – a perfect blend of serene nature and beautiful buildings. You can walk around inside the sitting area and take in the full 360° view. Overall, a very calming and memorable experience. Highly recommended if you enjoy scenic views and peaceful moments above the city!

If you want to take a panoramic view of one of Malaysia’s beautiful cities, you should definitely not miss this observatory tower. Built on the famous central street of the city, the tower takes visitors to almost 100 feet above the ground. The visitors are advised not to stand while in the observation tower. The seating deck revolves around the tower to give customers an all-around view of the city. The ride takes almost 20 minutes and binoculars are available for rent as well at the counter. The check-in process is well organized and smooth, so is the checkout process. I’d suggest taking the ride in the evening to get a really nice sunset view and the late night views of the city too. The tickets are available at the counter without any additional charge.

During our recent trip to Melaka, one of the highlights was experiencing the panoramic view from the top of the rotating observation ride. As we boarded, the ride began its slow, smooth ascent, gently spinning as it climbed higher and higher. The motion was calm and relaxing, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment as the city slowly unfolded beneath us. From above, Melaka offered a completely different perspective — a stunning 360-degree view of the historical city. Landmarks such as the Melaka River, the bustling Jonker Street, and the coastline came into clear view, all framed beautifully against the skyline. The experience gave us a fresh appreciation for the blend of old-world charm and modern development that defines the city. To make the experience even more enjoyable, we were offered complimentary drinks as part of the ride package. It was a small but thoughtful gesture that added a nice touch of hospitality. Overall, the ride wasn’t just about reaching the top — it was about the journey, the atmosphere, and the chance to take a quiet moment to admire the beauty of Melaka from a new angle. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a frequent traveler to this charming city, seeing Melaka from above is truly a memorable experience that adds a unique touch to any trip.

One of the most iconic spots in Melaka — those red colonial buildings are just stunning! Right across Jonker Street, it’s the perfect place for photos, a quick stroll, or even a fun trishaw ride.

Lovely architecture when in the square. During the day it looks really nice, at night, there are lots of lights and vehicles which light up. Sometimes the vehicles can take up a lot of the square and you will be asked 100 times if you want a ride but aside from that it's a nice visit. Only takes around 15 minutes to look around

🌍 A Walk Through Melaka’s Red Square If there’s one place in Melaka that every traveler ends up at, it’s the Red Square, also known as Dutch Square. Right in the heart of the city, this iconic spot glows with a unique charm – thanks to its terracotta red buildings that have become the face of Melaka’s old town. Stepping into the square feels like stepping into a living postcard. The Stadthuys, built in 1650, stands proudly as one of the oldest Dutch buildings in Asia. Once the governor’s office during the Dutch rule, today it serves as a museum, telling stories of Melaka’s colorful past. Beside it, the Christ Church, with its giant white cross, has watched over the square since 1753. Walk inside and you’ll find Dutch tombstones and a ceiling made entirely without nails – a true masterpiece of old craftsmanship. But Red Square isn’t just about the Dutch. The Queen Victoria Fountain, built by the British in 1904, splashes a refreshing reminder of Melaka’s later colonial chapter. And just a few steps away stands the Tan Beng Swee Clock Tower from 1886, a gift from a wealthy Chinese family – showing how cultures intertwined in this little town. Interestingly, the buildings weren’t always red. During the Dutch era, they were painted white. It was only under the British that the walls turned their famous terracotta shade, creating the “Red Square” we know today. Now, the square is alive with color and sound – trishaws decked in flowers and blasting pop songs, tourists snapping photos, and the scent of local snacks drifting in from nearby stalls. It’s a place where history and modern life meet in one vibrant frame. So, whether you come for the history, the Instagram-worthy shots, or simply to soak up the atmosphere, Red Square is Melaka’s timeless stage, where centuries of stories continue to echo. --- ✨ Fun Facts & Travel Tips 📸 Best photo spot: Capture the Christ Church with the clock tower in the same frame – best taken in the morning before the crowds. 🚲 Trishaw rides: A bit touristy, but fun! Each trishaw is decorated with cartoon themes and lights, and they’ll take you around the heritage zone. 🕰 History nugget: The Stadthuys is almost 400 years old – making it the oldest surviving Dutch building in Southeast Asia. 🌅 Best time to visit: Late afternoon or sunset – when the red walls glow warmly under the golden light. 🍦 Nearby snack: Try the local coconut shake or Nyonya kuih at the small stalls close to the square.

Church of Saint Paul, Malacca

Mentioned on

Catholic church
Sights & Landmarks
Church of Saint Paul, Malacca, is a historic site located on the summit of St. Paul's Hill. Originally built in 1521 by a Portuguese nobleman as an offering to the Virgin Mary, the church now stands in ruins with its roof gone and intricate tombstones belonging to Dutch noblemen. The site holds significance as it was constructed on the grounds of the last Malaccan sultan's palace and has witnessed various events throughout history.
You have history talking out of every remaining wall of the ruins. As you walk through the different parts of what was once a very impressive structure you realise that it has been witness to so much. Maintenance could be better, but nonetheless it should be a must visit when in Melaka. It's a short climb up, but once there the views are outstanding.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Peaceful Historical Landmark with Stunning Views – Church of Saint Paul, Malacca The Church of Saint Paul in Malacca is truly one of the most iconic and peaceful landmarks I have ever visited. Located on top of St. Paul’s Hill, this historical site offers not just a glimpse into the rich colonial history of Malaysia but also one of the most breathtaking panoramic views of Malacca city. As soon as you begin walking up the hill toward the church, you can feel the peaceful atmosphere and the sense of history in every step. The path leading up is surrounded by greenery, and even though it’s a short climb, it feels refreshing and calming. Along the way, you can see other old structures and statues, each with a story from the Portuguese and Dutch eras. When I reached the top, the ruins of the Church of Saint Paul stood gracefully, even after centuries. The stone walls, open windows, and ancient tombstones inside the structure give a timeless beauty to the place. The interior is simple, yet every corner carries deep historical value. You can still see inscriptions and old carvings on the walls that tell stories of people who once prayed and lived here long ago. The most amazing part for me was the view from the hilltop. You can see the entire Malacca city, the Straits of Malacca, and even the distant modern skyline blending with the red roofs of the old town. It’s a perfect spot for photography — especially during sunrise or sunset when the sky turns golden and the city lights begin to glow. What I also loved was how well-maintained the area is. The surroundings are clean, the pathways are safe, and local guides or signboards give clear information about the church’s history. Even though it can get a little crowded during weekends or public holidays, the place never loses its peaceful vibe. It’s ideal for both history lovers and tourists looking for a calm and meaningful experience. There’s no entrance fee, which makes it even more welcoming. You can spend as much time as you want exploring the ruins, taking pictures, or simply sitting on the benches nearby to enjoy the breeze and the view. For me, it was not just a tourist visit — it felt like stepping back in time and connecting with history. One small tip: wear comfortable shoes, especially if you’re visiting on a sunny day, as the climb can get warm. Bring a bottle of water and don’t forget your camera — you’ll definitely want to capture the stunning scenery. Overall, the Church of Saint Paul is a must-visit place in Malacca. It combines history, beauty, and tranquility in a way that very few places do. Whether you’re a local traveler or coming from abroad, this site will give you a deep appreciation for Malacca’s cultural heritage. I left the place feeling peaceful and inspired — it’s truly one of those destinations that touches your heart and stays in your memory forever. 🌤️📸✨

Oldest European built building east of India. A palpable piece of history. All that remains are the church walls; the roof has long since been destroyed. The climb up to this church on its hill is doable, not very arduous for those who can climb 3 to 4 stories of stairs. Unfortunately the ambience is marred by blue tents of vendors selling tourist trinkets, and the crowds of tourists during the weekend. If you go during the quiet hours, you can sit among the ruins and reflect over its long studied history and the march of time.

RAJIB R — Google review
St. Paul’s Church, perched on a hill overlooking the Straits of Malacca, remains one of the city’s most evocative landmarks. Built in 1521 by the Portuguese nobleman Duarte Coelho, it was originally called Nossa Senhora da Annunciada (Our Lady of the Annunciation). Later renamed St. Paul's, it served as a symbol of Malacca’s early European colonial history. The church witnessed transitions under Portuguese, Dutch, and British rule and now stands in dignified ruins, its weathered stone walls and open sky roof silently echoing centuries of faith, conquest, and change. We climbed the hill twice during our time in Malacca—each visit offering something different. The first was to take in the panoramic view: the city’s rooftops, the distant waters, and the quiet stillness of a space steeped in history. On our second ascent, we brought the drone to capture the site from above. As the camera rose into the morning air, St. Paul’s revealed its quiet grandeur—crumbling yet enduring, open to the sky yet grounded in deep time. Amid this filming, we met a local singer resting beneath the shade. Conversation flowed easily, and we soon found ourselves exchanging music and stories. I shared with him two songs from my Phenomenology Series: “Let the Peace Flow” and “Who Bears the Fire.” It felt fitting—singing about presence, perception, and inner stillness in a place where time seems suspended. The ruins, with their stone tombs and arched openings, became more than just historical remnants; they turned into a contemplative space where music, memory, and humanity intertwined. In that moment, the hill was no longer just a tourist stop—it became a quiet stage for connection, reflection, and the living rhythm of art in dialogue with place.

A residence of the Jesuits, in patronage of St. Paul, which was later converted into a graveyard. It was built atop this hill, in the day before European arrival, called Bukit Melaka. It was never a church. Great panoramic views all round without paying for a skyshot up the taming sari. Gentle hike up and down, which benches to sit.

Gunung Ledang

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Mountain peak
Nature & Parks
Mountains
Mount Ophir, also known as Gunung Ledang, is the tallest peak in the region and holds a significant place in local folklore. Situated between Johor and Melaka, it offers two hiking routes, campgrounds, and picturesque waterfalls. The ascent is challenging and not recommended for beginners due to its technical nature with rocky paths, ladders, and ropes.
Gunung Ledang is a beautiful and serene escape into nature. The waterfalls at the base are refreshing and great for families, while the hiking trails offer a real sense of adventure with ropes and ladders along the way. The forest is lush, peaceful, and full of fresh air — perfect for anyone wanting a break from city life. Bring good shoes, water, and snacks, and go early to enjoy the tranquility before the crowds arrive. Truly a gem in Johor!

At 1276 meters, Gunung Ledang (aka Mount Ophir) is the tallest peak in Johor and one of Peninsular Malaysia’s most legendary climbs. The trail lures weekend warriors with mossy forests, giant boulders, and ladders that may or may not have been installed during the Ming Dynasty. But Gunung Ledang isn’t just a mountain—it’s the stage for one of Malaysia’s most dramatic Malay folklore tragedies: Puteri Gunung Ledang. She was the elusive princess who rejected Sultan Mahmud of Melaka by demanding impossible dowry conditions—like a vat of virgin’s tears, a bowl of the Sultan’s son’s blood, and seven trays of mosquito hearts. Some say she still haunts the peak, possibly judging climbers’ fashion choices. 🥾 Distance: ~10–12 km round trip ⏱️ Time: 5–9 hours depending on fitness and existential crises 📍 Location: Tangkak, Johor ⚠️ Permits required, and local guides are mandatory 🌄 Best time to start: before sunrise if you enjoy misty fairytale vibes and mild existential dread Whether you believe in spirits or just want a workout that feels like a mythological punishment, Gunung Ledang delivers. Bonus points if you scream her name at the summit and get a mysterious breeze in return. Good for: hikers, folklore lovers, and those wondering if mosquito hearts are a metaphor for modern dating.

A rather technical hike that is definitely not for beginners. Good to have some bit of training as the ascent can take about 5-6hrs and the descent another 4-5hrs. Starts with paths, then rocky path, then ladders and ropes. Can be rather gruelling and bad for the knees, especially on the descent. View is decent. There’s better views elsewhere but definitely worth a climb for avid climbers.
Han L — Google review
This trail is above beginner. Muddy, slippery and you can easily get lost if you don't have a guide. Me and my friends started our climb at 8AM, went to the Peak B around 1PM and Peak A (Summit) around 2PM. It was an awesome experience climbing this mountain. My first out of the country mountain peak. This is highly recommended and will surely be back again.

End of June 2022: I made it to the summit of Mount Ophir. The daytrip (up and down) took me 11 hours. RM152 per pax, including tour guide and packed lunch. There’s penalty of RM50 per group if u returned after 7pm. Early August 2022: Went for photoshoot by the roadside. The view is still amazing and breathtaking
Windy S — Google review
Gunung Ledang is a well known mountain shrouded thick with the legend of Princess Ledang. Also named as Mount Ophir, it lays between Johor and Melaka with 2 hiking routes, camp sites and waterfalls. Started at around 8am, 7 of us hiked with our friendly guide for about 7hours uphill via Sagil trail from Tangkak, Johor. The first few check points were warm ups in retrospect for the latter ones as more and more lengthy ladders replaced the sturdy hiking path. Towards the peak, ladders gave way to ropes and eventually we found ourselves abseiling to the top. View by now was breath-taking, both figuratively and literally.Especially fresh in my memory was the cool breeze in the foggy Japanese Garden near peak. By noon, we've summited and surrounded by clouds all around. Next, we headed downwards to a tent site for some much needed rest and a self-heating hot meal, what a life-saver. Hike down was a rather no-brainer with a hiking pole. By 6pm and 10 hours later, we've completed the trail of about 6km+ safely. All in all, I'd say it's a rather technical hike involving some ladder climbing & abseiling. Medium difficulty. Good to be fit enough to enjoy the hike.
May C — Google review
It's challenging trekking. I went there for 2D 1N camping. You can do day hike as well but its very tiring and rushing. Sunrise view is very amazing and its cold on top peak. Waterfall is nearby the camp site and its amazing creature! Beginner is not advise, this trekking is for intermediate to expert level.

Great place to bring your kids here! You don’t have to pay or queue for a ticket. Since it is free entrance, please do not expect this place to be well-maintained. Overall, we had a great experience here and definitely will come again!

The dinosaurs are a bit sad to see, not really well maintained but the entrance is free. The indoor theme park was okay for kids. The area inside were also dark but the operator were kind enough to let both of the parents ride along with the kid.
Syazaamira A — Google review
Free entrance to view many dinosaurs, most of them with movement too. but dinosaurs were not maintained, and there were many tears and damages on the spongy skin. There is also a kids amusement park by the side, which was a paid attractions. Suitable for younger kids (7 years and less), will not be a kick for older kids. Each ticket allows 2 kids or 1adult+1kid per ride, and cost RM10. pay RM50 and get 7 rides instead.
Jarrod H — Google review
The dinosaurs seems a bit rundown but entry is free so no complaints. Our kids loved the rides at the amusement Park. There are many rides for the kids: viking, bumper cars, merry go round and more! Rides are chargeable but reasonably priced at rm10 per kid+accompanying parent.

This place is mainly for kids and is very small. Entrance is free of charge (except for the rides). There is also a souvenir shop at the end of the rides area. The dinosaur displays are not well maintained; alot of them are broken. Also, remember to bring mosquito repellent.
Gina C — Google review
Such a very bad place to visit. There are a lot of mosquitoes 🦟 Aedes to be exact. Electrical wires are left unattended, stagnant water is everywhere, the roof at the toilet is broken (might harm visitors), there are no staff monitoring the rides (they're not even locked), children can trespass any of the rides there. BASICALLY THE WHOLE PLACE IS MESSY AND DANGEROUS. HIGHLY NOT ENCOURAGED, AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS.

This is the most Beautiful park we ever visited. The place is so huge and clean. There are lots of lights decorations everywhere. Beautiful place to just relax and unwind. There are some activities for kids too like the playground and electric car. And it is along the river so it is nice to stroll around or even go for jogging. On the outer area near the mosque there is also a fountain night show every 30mins.

Golf course is pretty decent but could use higher and more fence to protect nearby joggers from stray balls going off the fairway or tee box. Fairways are very fluffy and woods friendly most of the time. Beware of monkeys if you have food or unsecured belongings as well even if you're jogging. Track is quite good for morning jogging too but watch out for those golf balls!

it is enjoyable to swim here. Entry is free and there is ample parking available. However, it tends to get crowded on weekends, which can affect the cleanliness of the pool. Hopefully, improvements will be made in the future. even if there is a small entrance fee, it would be acceptable as long as the facilities are clean and comfortable. It’s important that recreational spots like this are preserved, upgraded, and properly maintained for everyone’s benefit.

The hot spring located near Semerah, Parit Jawa. It has parking lots and admission is free. There are many "pondok" for group to use. We picnic for breakfast at the pondok. The place is big, spacious and clean. The hot spring at the center reach 40°C, quite hot. We went for the second layer of circle to soak feet and body in the water. A way to relax with universal water. There is playground for children as well. However the toilet facilities needs to improve on cleanliness and maintenance.

Quite well maintained,clean area and at the surroundings. But one pool with no water, not for used by the public.Middle/centre well with hot spring water only. Two adults and some children were there when I was at that area. This hot spring is situated far deep in after turning from the main road. Good public amenities at this area. 07/03/2024-After renovation works last year,thumbs up .

Hot spring that is accessible to the general public and is kept in good condition. I think this is another good healing spot for the local people. Besides, it is free of charge. Not only free, but there is also a prayer room provided for the Muslims to perform their solat. The hot spring is divided into a few pool areas, according to different sets of temperature. We can smell the sulphur content even in a pool that is not really hot (I'm not sure the exact temperature). For the restroom improvement, I suggest that a regular routine for cleaning can be done, especially during peak hours with a high number of visitors on weekends.

A great place to get cool breeze from the seaside. There is a pathway along the beach and also a hiking trail for you to challenge at the end of the trail. However, there is a lot of crows along the seaside and you might need to aware of the crows’ excrement along the pathway.

Last time I went there with my aunts and nephew. The view is nice and you can feel the sea breeze. Close by got many mobile stalls that sell foods and drinks. There is one camping site near the mountain side but currently it was closed due to unknown reasons. If you walk to the end of the stone pathway, you can spot a pavilion and observe the beauty of the sunset view. Unfortunately, the beach side got some rubbish which ruins the environment.

Its not a sandy beach. Therefore not recommended to swim. Unless knocking your head to rocks is your favourite past time. Becareful when walking between rocks. I found some sort of shaman or demonic material littered between rocks. Yellow cloth with written chanting stuff. The sunset..depends on the weather is spectacular. In scale 1 to 10 where 10 is the best, i'd say, just befitting number 6. But that is just me.

UK Farm is a peaceful farmstay that offers simple and comfortable accommodations. Aside from lodging, the place also boasts of dining options, a cafe and even a petting zoo where children can get up close with animals like goats, ducks, chickens, ostriches, deer, peacocks, rabbits and horses. The Mini Bus farm tour package comes with feeding sets for the animals as well as guides to help visitors navigate their way around.
Our family of 4 had a great time at UK Farm for just RM120, and that even included food for feeding the animals! The 2-hour guided tour was the highlight — the guide gave clear and informative explanations, so we could really understand the whole farm process. We also enjoyed a cultural show by the Orang Asli and got to visit their traditional jungle bedroom, which was an eye-opening experience. Our kids especially loved the bus tour around the farm, and we all got to taste different goat milk flavours for free — a fun and tasty surprise! You can even buy fresh goat milk directly from the farm. Overall, it was a fun, educational, and memorable outing for the whole family. Highly recommended!
Carmen C — Google review
Seriously the farmstay is not up to expectations. Room chalets is far from the reception and restaurant. Room condition is bad with lots of ants. They keep biting my feet. There are non activities or ZERO except farm tour only. All their activities advertise or in website is not reflected and never take full package if you really wanna stay. That's all and staying in this resort is not recommended. The only worth going is the farm tour or day tour and that's all. Tips: All highlight in the photos attached. Road to the farm is ok with nice tar road. Only farm tour is worth. Restaurant food is not ok too. The only best is their milk 😁

Gunung Lambak

Mountain peak
Nature & Parks
Mountains
Gunung Lambak is a small recreational mountain in Kluang, rising 510 meters above sea level. It offers adventurous jungle trekking with paths and stairs leading to the top. The area surrounding Gunung Lambak features various attractions such as traditional cafes, street arts, farm stays, and local eateries offering special desserts made from Malaysian favorite fruits like durian and coconut.
You can climb up the mountain via two routes - one is more steep and involves holding on to guide ropes as you scale up the slopes. Another route has a relatively gentler slope coming up/going down - both routes meet at around a few hundred meters in elevation at a midway point where you can proceed further up to the mountain peak. Bring water, chocolate/energy bars and be sure of your footing as some parts can be dangerous (one fall and its game over). Take your time to go up/down and avoid coming here during or after rain as conditions will be treacherous. Good luck and happy climbing!

Dr. O — Google review
Not easy to climb...especially from mid mountain to the peak, which needs ropes to ascend, and with plenty of steps that are as high as waist height... Need all fours at times. Coming down is even more challenging, and slipped a few times, until I learnt from some of locals who speedily descended by holding on to ropes and moving down backfacing... I should have given more time to it... Instead of 3hrs, next time I will give it a 5 hr so I can slowly enjoy the trek.
Sean S — Google review
Hiked here on a misty and light rainy day, its super humid and slippery big mistake. Ok but this mountain is a great hike, its moderate meaning that you need to be moderately fit for it. This trail in my experience is pretty confusing as it doesn't have clear marks to show whether you're going 1st peak or 2nd peak so I only went for the second peak and gave up. It's a constant steep hike upwards with a few ropeclimbs and it goes allll the way up. so RIP my thighs.

We opted to go for the extreme trail which involved using ropes and the roots of trees to help us get up, but it was worth it. The hidden waterfalls were stunning, the wildlife was incredible and the views were out of this world. A wild dog even joined us.

I can say for sure the trekking is good for beginner and intermediate, well build steps and ropes..the challenges starts on the half to top pathway..but what i like the most is how friendly the local are..you are easily be greeted with ‘good morning’ and As salamualaikum/ for muslims’..never seen this kind of hospitality by locals trekker..kudos to Kluang people..

The locals are friendly and will guide you/offer help. It can be cold up there esp if it is after rain. The course is suitable for all. My 5 year old managed to finish the course himself.

Kukup Island

Island
Nature & Parks
Tranquil, unfussy mangrove island & wetland habitat with wildlife & fishing docks.
Some parts of the trails are off limits due to safety reasons. But the rest are to explore. We got to the tower and able to see eagle soaring in the sky. It was tranquil and it got some instagrammable spota that you can take pictures. P/S: don’t bring food into the island. Got monkeyss. Beware of them

Visitation is not available at the moment as the link bridge into the island is under repair. You can still have a boat tour around the fishing village, Floating fish farm and guest houses around the area

In order to promote preservation of this unique mangrove habitat, Pulau Kukup is declared as a RAMSAR site on 31 January 2003. In year 1997, it is protected as a national park under the Johor State Park Corporation Enactment 1989. Kukup Island or Pulau Kukup is one of the biggest inhabited mangrove sites in the world. There are various species of wildlife there in the national park. They are monkeys, wild boar, mudskipper and much more. Do visit tanjung piai, another mangrove habitat in Johor, not far away from kukup island. Famous johor hotels such as the Grand Blue Waves Hotel Johor Bahru provide luxurious stay and services for visitors. It is situated in the heart of Johor Bahru, thus, it is not far away from the City Square Johor Bahru. City Square Johor Bahru is a shopping centre and office building that was opened in the year of 1995. It is the tallest building in Johor Bahru and attracts tourists especially Singaporeans.

Shopping Malls
Johor Premium Outlets, located in Malaysia, is a top shopping destination offering daily discounts of 25% to 65% on over 130 designer and name brands. Visitors can find renowned labels such as Timberland, Ralph Lauren, Nike, Coach, Versace, Salvatore Ferragamo, Burberry, and Victorias Secret at this outlet. The declining currency values in Malaysia make the deals even more attractive for those converting foreign currencies.
Had a wonderful shopping experience at Johor Premium Outlets! The discounts across brands were truly attractive and honestly made me buy more than I planned – in the best way possible. Beyond the great deals, I was pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful amenities: clean, air-conditioned restrooms (a rare and welcome comfort!) and EV charging stations right in the parking area. Being able to charge my car while shopping was incredibly convenient. JPO clearly goes the extra mile to make visitors comfortable. Highly recommended for a hassle-free, value-packed shopping trip! For those who are vegan, you may find a meal in the food court, marry brown mushroom veggie burger and one stall does provide vegetarian food as well.

Fantastic experience here. Good deals, good designs, clean and spacious. Prices cheaper 20-30% as compared to SG. My sister managed to purchase a pair of high end heels at 50%. Sports brand were updated and attractive. Spent 8 hrs slowly combing through the stores. Get yourself a nice ice cream from Godiva.

Back in 2019, shopping at Johor Premium Outlets felt like a heavenly experience. The variety of international brands, great discounts, and open-air design made it unforgettable. I truly loved it and would definitely come back for another shopping spree

Nice place to buy brand items and brisk walk here. Have nice food court with reasonable price (first time eat here, befere this only shopping). Nasi Kandar Melayu also here. Got place for children to play. Found out that there's a machine to charge your phone inside the food court, Rm3 for 1 hour if not mistaken. Also got a bank here, Maybank. Got surau, and plenty rest rooms around Jpo. Outdoor playground on first floor at the of the building. There some shop lot give discounts on selected items. Overall, feel like shops overseas, best place to window shop too 😎 Finally, this place got a lot of parking lot, you can choose where to park. This place got not free entering, bring your TNG cards 🫰🏻

A decent spot for outlet shopping, especially for designer and name brand items. With nearly 150 stores, there’s a mix of international brands like Coach, Burberry, Armani, and more.It’s especially worth visiting during special promotions or seasonal sales otherwise, prices can be a bit higher compared to other outlet malls overseas. The layout is open and easy to get around, and the overall environment is clean and well maintained. The mall has grown over the years and now offers a wider variety of stores compared to its early days. Food choices are a bit limited, but there’s enough to grab a quick bite. Parking is spacious and convenient, which adds to the ease of the visit. Overall, a good place for a relaxed day of shopping just best timed around major deals for the best value.

Its one of the option if you wanna find good discount series (Skechers) and open space store mixing with nature, there are so many good brands as well, parking lot OK, cleanliness OK
Mico Y — Google review
Ground floor are mostly high end brands. 2nd floor are more mid tier brands. There is a food court and a couple of restaurants that served good food eg Madam Kwan and Souper Tang. I wish they had Louis Vuitton, Loewe and please bring back Prada. I like how some brands offer additional discount on top of the slashed price on tag.

Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru is a massive retail complex located in the heart of the Skudai district. With over 500 outlets spread across seven floors and spanning 1.3 million square feet, it offers a wide range of department stores, boutiques, and casual eateries. The mall also features entertainment options such as an ice skating rink, a state-of-the-art cinema with 16 screens, an indoor archery course, and an indoor playground for kids.
Haven't been here for a a while. It's obviously a huge Mall with plenty of options for shopping and also food. There is Jaya Grocer for those looking for grocery. There is GSC inside of you are looking for cinema. There is also Parkson inside here. The food court options on the top floor might not be the best, but there are plenty of other options.

We visited during a weekday morning. Big shopping mall, many entertainment for the family with kids if you decide join the activities like rock climbing, obstacles course and skiing park etc. Many foods options. Its was rather quiet during the weekday.

I would strongly recommend this mall for family staycation (at the airBnB above) with kids, especially 5 years and older. There are many kids friendly activities in this mall, including amusement centre, ice skating rink, archery, cat cafe and the extensive adventure play. Many restaurants and several spas to choose from as well.

Visited Paradigm Mall JB, and it remains one of the largest and most complete malls in Johor. The mall is spacious, modern, and well-organised, making it easy to navigate. There’s a wide variety of retail shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, and lifestyle brands, so you can easily spend a few hours here without running out of things to do. Entertainment options are plentiful too — from the cinema to family-friendly activities — making it a solid choice for both locals and visitors. Parking is generally convenient, though weekends can get busy. Whether you’re here to shop, eat, catch a movie, or simply walk around indoors, Paradigm Mall JB is a reliable, all-in-one stop.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best malls in JB! Paradigm Mall is a well-thought-out space that truly caters to everyone — adults, kids, gamers, foodies, and even pet lovers. What I love most is how it offers such a wide variety of retail, dining, and entertainment options without trying to be an ultra-luxury mall. That means prices stay reasonable, making it super friendly for both locals and tourists. There’s a huge Tesco (Lotus’s), cinema, ice skating rink, arcade, pet-friendly cafés, and lots of fun zones for kids. The layout is spacious, clean, and easy to navigate, with plenty of parking and clear signage. Perfect for families, day trips from Singapore, or just a chill weekend hangout. Paradigm Mall JB really hits the sweet spot between variety, affordability, and comfort. Highly recommended for a full-day experience! 👍
