Bukit Kepong museum - Johor brief getaway
A historical museum with loads of information located in a refurbish colonial building. The museum located next to Sg Muar, within Muar district - an hour drive or 54km away from Muar town. The museum has become a referance spot for local historical enthusiast. The existing building was used to be a police post, burnt down in year 1950. The 2 story museum consists of information board about the building, a reenacted melodrama of the typical police post in the old days, its barrack and family living room reminds us of the old good day. The museum also act as a memorial to those affected by the incident happened. The decor of a typical living room of Malaysia family in the 70's will caught your eye as the furniture was kind of not in existance anymore.
Free to enter, come during durian session and can enjoy durians along the way enroute to the museum, and with a stop at the cendol stall - it should complete your brief getaway.

Perfect seafood and sunset
Muar Glutton Street is a 100 metre stretch along Jalan Haji Abu with Jalan Meriam at the northern end and Jalan Ali in the south. (Hence, it is also referred to as Food Street Jalan Haji Abu.)
There are some two dozen food stalls at Muar Glutton Street. They open for business at different times of the day and have different off days. Let's take a walk with me down Jalan Haji Abu. (The street is open to cars and motorbikes, so do look out.)

Hidden Spot Restaurant Muar
I totally recommend this restaurant. The price is affordable and the food is super delicious. quite cozy n quiet as well. Its has several restaurants and a hotel around the cafe, but i do recommend to go to dis restaurant instead since the other restaurant only hv common menu. Super good I really like their aglio olio seafood & their dessert. all their desserts looks so delicious tho but i choose the ferero rochere. if u hv been to InsideScoop and try their Rocher, this dessert in La Farine restaurant is exactly taste like tht.

Muar River Cruise
RM20 per person (adult rate) for a 30 minute boat ride is super worth it. They covered most of the Muar River, and it’s nice to pass historical sites like the Sultan Ibrahim Mosque, and also the two Muar bridges; one leading to Tanjung Agas and the other leading to Muar Town.
What’s lovely about the cruise is that it’s also educational at the same time because there’s an audio recording describing important landmarks that passengers will see along the way. Pretty ideal for parents with children old enough to appreciate history, or even school trips for students.
There will also be a group of photographers who will take your picture with a sign that says “Muar Cruise,” and it’s up to your whether you want to purchase it or not. The photo quality is good, and the frame is magnetic which makes it excellent as a memorable souvenir to put on your fridge. It’s a bit costly though - RM40.
Overall, really enjoyed the cruise. Would recommend for first timers visiting Muar and Tanjung Emas.
Operating hours: 9:30am-12:30pm and 2:30pm-5:30pm, on Friday, weekends and public holidays.

Muar, Quan Wei Restaurant
#malaka #foodie #muar #food #otah #popular #malaysia #MustTry
When visiting Melaka, most people would drop by the city of Muar, especially if they do a self drive as its just a short 60-90mins drive towards muar.
This place is a must go especially if you are someone who loves 2 things, fish and otah!
Quan Wei Reataurant is located at Jalan Abdul Rahman, No 6, Jalan Perdana 12, Taman Junid Perdana. You will see many good reviews of this restaurant, and they were here even before the covid tines.
They have really good Muar otah, fresh fish where you have to try with their assam, that's thier signature hit! And what's most important is the friendly Muar people here, where they treat customers as family with good servicing attitude. The reataurant itself is also clean and well mantained. Definitely a must stop spot if you are heading to/from melaka.
Vintage Hut at Parit Jawa!
The Vintage Hut is located at No. 163, 8, Jalan Jabbar, Parit Jawa, behind Daily Happy Otak-otak Shop which is within a fishing village.
This vintage hut became a insta-worthy hotspot since last year, created by the young owner of Daily Happy Otak-otak Shop using recycle and nostalgic collection items, it like a vintage 60'-70' old Chinese kampung house. Most visitors come to visit this unique hut while purchasing their nice and famous otak-otak.
The famous and oldest Muar coffee
saikee 434 muar coffee is a must place to visit if you go to muar town. it's a oldest coffee shop. interior design and ambience very fascinated.
once u walked through the door..the coffee aroma so distinctive. We drink coffee to enjoy its unique flavor notes and its rich aroma. Chocolate, caramel, almonds, fruits, and flowers are all evoked when we make a pour over or sip from an espresso...
a cup of coffee served with charcoal toast bread definitely a perfect match.

It is a Chinese restaurant which is quite popular in Muar (Johor) and they serve a lot of Thai style dishes. The restaurant owner learnt how to cook Thai food from an actual Thai cook in Thailand and he brought it back to Muar.
Rumah Cabuk Muar is cozyyyy
For me, i would like to say this place is good to hangout and chitchat especially those friends that you havent see for a long time. The price for the beverage is very affordable and taste super good. i dont recommend the food since it just only common food that you can get at any restaurant with cheaper price. However, if you wanna hangout in a cozy place with book & coffee on hands just to have an escape from the work from home or a break, this place is the best. try it #newyearadventure #tripblazers #awesomepic

Popular Parit Jawa Restoran @ Muar
For those who either have their personal car or book a private driver towards KL, you should at least do a stop here in muar to eat at one of the many restaurants that not only serves good seafood but affordable too, as muar isn't as popular as other states in malaysia.
One restaurant that you should visit is the Parit Jawa Roast Fish restaurant located at No 161, Jalan Jabbar, Parit Jawa, 84150 Muar, where they have fresh deep fried sotong/calamari, steamed Fish with its firm meat, and of course in muar, you should always go for the otah, it's a delicacies here or must have when you are in the city of muar!
Drop by here, I'm sure you won't regret!
