My Visit to Kuala Lumpur, Malacca, & Johor Bahru

Capital of Malaysia, popularly known as KL, home of the Petronas Twin Towers. Local currency is Ringgit (MYR). English is widely spoken with Bahasa Malaysia being the official language. Mix of Malay, Indian, and Chinese ethnic groups. Food paradise for cheap and delicious meals, especially hawker fare. Climate is hot and humid with temperatures around 32 deg Celcius on average.

So, my next visit is Malacca, is the third Malaysian state after Perlis and Penang. It is located in the Southern region of the Malay Peninsula, next to the Straits of Malacca. It borders Negeri Sembilan to the North and Johor to the South.

Finish traveling around Malacca, we prepare to move to Johor Bahru. Gateway to the South part of Peninsula Malaysia with easy access to Singapore via the Causeway. Around 368 km from KL. Lots of city shopping such as Johor Premium Outlets and theme park like Legoland and Puteri Harbour family theme park. Nearby beaches on the East Coast such as Desaru are good for surfing and seaside activities.

Legoland Ticket Counters

If you are a fan of a Lego, this place is a must visit. There are so many awesome things inside.

Legoland has 2 parks: Theme Park and Water Park. If you have a plan to visit all parks in one day, I may say it is impossible. Why? Because the park is very very spacious. You need 2 days to visit all parks because there are many interesting places you will gonna love. I only visit the theme park because my feet are very tired already. :lol

So, I'm planning to visit this beautiful country again some other time. And will post more beautiful photographs to share with you all.
