Desaru Beach
A long beach of fine sand on Johor's east coast, facing the South China Sea and backed by casuarina trees. Resorts sit along it, and it is a weekend escape from Johor Bahru and Singapore.
-
Endau-Rompin National Park
Protected rainforest straddling Johor and Pahang in the southern foothills of the Tenasserim Hills, around 870 square kilometres in all. It is the second largest national park in Peninsular Malaysia after Taman Negara, crossed by about 26 kilometres of trail.
-
Legoland Malaysia
The first Legoland in Asia, opened in 2012 in Iskandar Puteri with more than 40 rides, shows and attractions. Much of the park is built from Lego bricks, including a miniature Asia of famous cities and landmarks.
-
Rawa Island
A small coral island off Mersing in Johor, with its neighbours Harimau and Mensirip close by. White sand and clear water draw swimmers and snorkellers on the boat out from the mainland.
-
Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple
A Hindu temple in Johor Bahru whose walls, pillars and ceilings are covered in pieces of glass that glitter under the lights. In 2010 it was recorded as the first and only glass temple in the country.

Sultan Abu Bakar State Mosque
The state mosque of Johor, built between 1892 and 1900 under Sultan Abu Bakar, on a rise looking over the Straits of Johor. Its white walls and minarets owe as much to Victorian Britain as to the Islamic world.
