I am hoping to go to Johor Bahru (JB), Malaysia this weekend. Do you know what is there to see in JB? Its very close to Singapore as it is in the border and transport is very cheap. Your input is much appreciated. Thanks

I'm from Johor state and JB is actually the capital of that state. You can go to the palace which is open to public at certain period of the week but most people go there for shopping. However, do take care of your things because the crime rate there is very very high especially foreigners or tourists. Just be careful.
