2024 Gelang Patah Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#foodies #vianasjourney #deliciousfood 🌟 My personal favourite; 1) Terong Balado; The sambal is spicy and balanced taste. Terong was not fried till it was too soggy. 2) Tempe Goreng as a side is a must. 🌟 We were served with complimentary warm wedqng jahe (warm ginger tea) in a small cup. 🌟 Apart from balinese cuisine, they also have option from Central Java, snack food and typical Indonesian mee such bakso. 🌟 Restaurant interior & vibes; it is a medium size restaurant which does not have overcrowded decorative but they tried to have an Indonesian elements. For example, you can see it by seeing the plates they using, the arrangement of the table and some other common decorations use in Indonesia. I enjoyed my food and the vibes. Staff were helpful. 🌟 Location; A0104 (GF), Block A, Eko Galleria, Jalan Eko Botani 3, Taman Eko Botani, 79100 Iskandar Puteri, Johor.

#beachlife This was our first time in Forest City, so we had to take cycle around! It was only possible because our hotel provided free bicycle rental, on a super cute family bicycle. It was a bucket list check off, because these things are so expensive to rent in Singapore. After checking in we immediately went to cycle, there is a beach next to the hotel so it was a nice coastal area to be at, rather cooling since it just rained. There are a few photogenic spots there, such as a nice garden for beach wedding, a stairway to heaven and even a mini water theme park (more suitable for toddlers). If you love beach holidays and can't travel far, I think Forest City is a nice place to be at.

#hotelreview We loved the room at Forest City Marina Hotel. It was about 44m2 and all rooms faces the sea, you don’t even have to request for it. You will get it. The rooms comes with balcony where you can enjoy the sea breeze if you like. We got the twin room as it was a promotional package with free lunch or dinner, free breakfast and bicycle rental! A very good steal for you to spend a day in Forest City. Bathtub lovers would be delighted the rooms comes with them. If you don’t need shopping, I would really recommend you to come here for a gate away.

Johor National Park of Tanjung Piai not really well known as other National Park in Malaysia. It is located at the Tip of Most Southern of Asia Mainland. It is also facing another 2 countries which is Singapore and Indonesia (Karimun Island). This National Park also a conservation area of mangroove and its ecosystem lead by this National Park Authority with the collaboration of private sectors and various of Non-Govermental Organisation. Lead to the monument of The Southernmost Tip of Mainland Asia, visitors will be educated with the information of various species of wildlife and plants live among the mangroove ecosystem. The good thing here, to avoid visitors from damaged the natural habitats of mangroove ecosystem and to facilitate us enjoy the scenery, a walkway has been provided as a guidance towards the monument. #hiddengems

#hotelreview Ibis Styles Iskandar Puteri located just 10 minutes away from Legoland themepark , 15 minutes from Johor Premium Outlet and 30 minutes from Singapore. Despite its location nearby tourist attraction, the price is so reasonable. As this place quite new, theres a lot of parking space outside the hotel. They have basement parking but i not recommend to park at basement as it quite dark and foggy. The check in process is smooth and the hotel cleanliness is outstanding. The bed is comfy and the room space is just nice for our family of 4. The breakfast is good. The only thing lack is they dont have the bell boy. We need to push the trolley our self which is not a problem for us considering the cheap price and the great room we got. #Boutiquehotel #awesomepic

Tanjung Piai National Park covers an area of 926 ha out of which 526 ha consists of coastal mangroves and 400 ha of inter-tidal mudflats. Mudflats are soft and muddy soil where creatures such as crabs, mud skippers, cockles and lizards thrive. Due to its vicinity to the sea, the mud has high salt content and low in oxygen levels. A few species of large water birds and shorebirds were seen to be feeding on these mudflats. These mangroves and mudflats are also critical to the survival of the migratory birds from the northern and southern hemisphere. #tanjungpiai

Hua Kee Kelong Seafood is famous for fresh and live seafood dishes in the evening and dimsum in the morning. It is located at Gelang Patah, 10 minutes drive from Legoland. We visited the restaurant for breakfast and dinner during our stay in M+ Boutique Hotel as it is just next to the hotel. The restaurant is clean and spacious with a large seating capacity. In the morning, the restaurant functions like a coffee shop. You shouldn't miss the wide selection of dimsum dishes. There are also food stalls selling local delicacies like noodles and yong tau foo. In the evening, the restaurant is frequented by locals for its reasonably priced seafood dishes. Do not miss their homemade fishballs!

This two beds room hotel at Forest city is very spacious, the single bed feels more like a super single, can fit 2 person if you’re not too big size. We are lucky to get a room that can see the beautiful sunset, the view from this room is breathtaking. The toilet is very spacious too, even have a nice bathtub. However, there are still a few complaints despite the room being so nice. 1. The toilet bowl clog very easily, we only used once and it’s clogged, had to call to unclogged. 2. The check in time is very long, we only managed to checked in after 6pm!! Despite we reaching here at 2:30pm. I think that also due to the high number of customers that check in on this day as well. 3. Most of the things feels old here, the lock in the toilet is spoiled, so can’t lock the door. 4. There are a lot of mosquitoes here, but they try to solve it by putting a net sliding door. Overall is quite a nice place, but there are still room for improvements.

Istg (i swear to god), the black teh o is just another level here. Oklah. Its maddening sweet so don’t ask for less ice and also, it’s 50cents?? The best i tell you! On the other hand, food’s here not bad too! But do come early as their popular dishes tend to be sold out by mid afternoon. There’s 2nd level to seat if the first floor is full and also, seating area outside for waiting. There’s ample of parking so come down soon! 📍Teh O ice 50cent & Boat Noodle no 58, Jalan Nusaria 11/4, Taman Nusantara, 81550 Gelang Patah, Johor, Malaysia #foodie #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #tripblazers #cafe #johorbaru #thaifood #makananhalal #makanjohor

Good Times Cafe was established by 6 siblings who grew up in Segamat. The cafe serves local delicacies made with traditional recipes which are reminiscent of many's childhood memories. The interior is beautifully decorated with many household items that are commonly used in the past which give you a homely kampung feel. I especially like the nice wall murals in the cafe which remind me of the good old times. We ordered Segamat wantan noodles and toasted bread with signature duck egg kaya and butter. The cafe also serves GT house blend premium coffee which has a strong and satisfying aftertaste. Address: 24, Jalan Eko Botani 3/2, 79100 Gelang Patah, Johor, Malaysia #johorcafe #johorbahru #malaysia #cafe #restaurant #foodie #tripblazers #localfood

Forest city has a concept of private town for it’s residents but we were able to visit last time as there were some store that a friend interested to visit and of course I was curious about this place. This area even has it’s own swimming pool, playground and the best part was it’s own white sandy beach. A lot of nice spot for healing and relaxing but I have to admit it was quite a drive from the city.

The Hotel is a golf resort area therefore there is nothing much surrounding it. However, the hotel has a really nice view, rooms were big, breakfast was good, staffs were friendly and very helpful. So if you are looking for peaceful place and nice view, come to this hotel and you will not regret! Overall for me, I will definitely come again here. #staycation #forestcity #johorbahru #couplestrip #MyTripVlog #deliciousfood

Let us tell you, it is difficult to keep things prim and proper. Taking to Facebook, Malaysia’s most successful football team (in the Super League era) Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT), shared how things are done down south, in keeping their home ground, Sultan Ibrahim Stadium, battle ready. Located in Iskandar Putri, JDT’s current stadium is named after the current Sultan of Johor. With a capacity of 35,000 fans, 25 Presidential Suites, 402 business seats, cleaning it is not easy! The roof alone, which can be seen in the cleaning process, rests on 56 arched trusses, supported by primary concrete structures that are white and exposed to the elements. #stadium #jdt
