Johor |
Southern Gateway |
Its vast landscape is characterised by plantations of pineapple, rubber, coconut and palm oil, punctuated by spectacular national parks, quaint fishing villages, and 5-star sea-side resorts.
Retaining much of its natural splendour, the state has miles of golden sandy beaches, and beautiful offshore islands with clear waters which are excellent for diving, snorkelling and deep-sea fishing. The state is also endowed with several internationally-acclaimed forest reserves. Nature lovers will find the Endau-Rompin National Park located on the Johor-Pahang border, an unforgettable experience.
This lush, virgin lowland dipterocarp forest is home to several rare and endangered species, including the two-horned Sumatran rhinoceros.
Johor also has some of the best golf courses and luxury resorts in the country. |
