I got the chance to visit Kota Iskandar in Johor to do some sort of project photoshoots and I was honestly in love with the architectural design of the building as well as the simplicity of the landscape inside this fabulous place.

Sultan Ismail Building is where the meeting places for the Johor state legislative assembly and it is facing the Dato 'Jaafar Muhammad (BDJM) building.

Kota Iskandar is also known as the Putrajaya in Johor where most of the officers are here. This place was opened in April 2009 and the architectural design of the place was inspired by Moorish- Andalusian and Johor Malay designs and motifs.

For some couples out there, this place is an ideal place for taking photos for pre or post-nuptial weeding. Some youngsters were also spotted around the vicinity taking Instagramable shots or as background to their TikTok contents.

Kota Iskandar is located in Iskandar Puteri near LEGOLAND and the Puteri Harbour. 

Such a nice mega-project that showcases an amazing landscape for the community to hang out and refresh while relaxing on a man-made beach facing the island of Singapore.

If you plan to use their facilities please be reminded that there is a fee to use their pools and other water activities except for those quadbikes (ATV), banana rides, etc around the beachfront of Forest City.

Here is the important thing to know when visiting this place:

This place is also ideal for a family picnic if you don’t want to use their pool. It's nice to set your picnic at their grassy area but bear in mind that it may be very hot around 11 AM to 3 PM. 

To get here, you will need to drive for about 30-40 minutes from Johor Bahru with a speed of 80-100 kilometers per hour depending on traffic conditions. To avoid the jam, you can use the Express Way.

You can use any navigation app available online to guide you on the way to get here. 

Got the chance to walk along Taman Merdeka during this Chinese New Year break with the kids.

One can be amazed by those various historical sculptures that showcase significant highlights in Malaysia’s History for Independence. It's very educational, especially for the kids. 

Taman Merdeka is also a recommended place for joggers and for fellas out there who need space for zumba sessions, yoga sessions, and physical activities that required space.

Other sighted activities here include fish feeding. The fish food can just be bought at the main entrance of the park.

If you are driving, you can just easily locate this by using any navigation app. It is nearby the city center of Johor Bahru. Parking is free so don't worry.

PS: There are some areas that were cordoned. Some sections are still under maintenance.
