By mid-day, visit the iconic Sultan Abu Bakar Mosque and learn some history. The marvellous Istana Besar, once the Johor royal family’s principal palace, was built to mimic Victorian architecture and style by Sultan Abu Bakar in 1866. Opened as a museum to the public in 1990, displaying the incredible wealth of the sultans in over 60,000 pieces, it is now the finest museum of its kind in Malaysia with a beautifully manicured 53-hectare verdant ground, and the best place to learn about the city. Entry is free.

After the edifying trip, it’s time to play at the home to Asia’s first LEGOLAND – LEGOLAND Malaysia. Witness MINILAND – the magnificent masterpiece built with over 30 million LEGO bricks, featuring famous attractions from 17 Asian countries such as the PETRONAS Twin Towers, Singapore’s Merlion, India’s Taj Mahal, and even several of Johor’s own unique landmarks.

At night, learn to cook one of the most iconic culinary dish in Johor, Laksa Johor, with the in-house chef and dazzle everyone back home when you return with your newfound skill.
