🕌Johor Bahru Half Day Tour｜Johor Old Temple + Tan Hiu Nian Street + City Square Half Day Trip Sharing ✨Attached with JB to SG crossing strategy!

If you are planning to travel to Singapore and don't want to fly directly from Kuala Lumpur, you can stop by Johor Bahru, a short trip that can be done in half a day! I personally tested this half-day tour route and it was easy + cultural + air-conditioned! It was really comfortable after the walk~ I share the itinerary as follows👇 🕌 Johor Ancient Chinese Temple Located in the city center, a century-old temple hidden between skyscrapers, integrating the beliefs of Teochew, Hakka, Fujian, Hainan and other ethnic groups With its prosperous incense and ancient architecture, it is a microcosm of JB's local culture Free visiting time 10am-530pm 📸Tips: The red lantern wall is very good for taking photos! It is recommended to wear white or red clothes to go beyond the photo 🏮 Tan Hiok Nee Heritage Street It's less than 5 minutes walk from the ancient temple! It is one of the earliest Chinese settlements in JB Creative shops, independent cafes, graffiti walls, and traditional food are all concentrated here The street is not long, but it is very tasteful, suitable for walking, taking photos, and drinking hand-shake Remember to go and take pictures of different murals, it is definitely worth slowly exploring! 🛍️ City Square Mall It only takes about 10 minutes to walk back from Chen Xu Nian Street, super convenient! Eat, drink and shop in one stop: Sephora, Uniqlo, Guardian and various local restaurants, there is even a small popmart blind box and other second-hand buyer stores (but a little expensive 💰) It is recommended to reserve about 1 hour for free shopping + buy small souvenirs With dry goods❗ 🚶Johor Bahru (JB) → Singapore (SG) customs clearance strategy | 2025 version of the lazy package Whether you return to Singapore from JB or come for a flash mob on the day, please keep this customs clearance strategy 👇 ✅ Recommended route: walk through the customs + take a car to enter SG Start from City Square Mall or no matter how you arrive at jb SENTRAL, (look for the Woodlands sign anyway) walk into the JB CIQ Customs Building (with air-conditioned pedestrian passage) Scan your passport + complete the departure procedures (Malaysia e-gate supports most foreign passports, which is much faster. Singapore and Malaysia passports go on the left, and foreigners go on the rightmost egate) After crossing the long bridge, you will arrive at SG Customs Woodlands Checkpoint Enter Singapore with SG Arrival Card (remember to fill it out online in advance) Take SMRT bus / Causeway Link CW → Kranji MRT or go directly back to the city 🕓 Avoid peak hours: 7:00–9:00 am on weekdays / 17:30–20:00 pm (wait for 2 hours) Friday nights and weekend mornings are the most crowded! 📲 Prepare in advance: Download MyICA App (check entry status) Get your SG Arrival Card ready Johor Bahru is really not just about exchanging money + eating Bak Kut Teh, it actually hides many cultural treasures, Johor Old Temple + Tan Hiu Nian Street is totally worth visiting to experience the slow time of the old street✨ The itinerary is not rushed, and the photos are also beautiful. It's just right to go shopping at City Square Mall, and you will feel very satisfied after one trip~ 📌#JB Tourism #JB Half Day Tour #Malaysia Travel #CitySquare Must Visit #Johor Old Temple #Chen Xu Nian Street #JB Cultural and Creative #JB Good Photo #JB Cafe #Singapore Malaysia Border Crossing Guide #Singapore Weekend Travel
