Today let me share to you my discoveries about the gateway to the beautiful islands of Johor. Lets go Mersing🛥️🚌.
THE JOURNEY:
Our journey from Johor Bahru to Mersing is via Causeway Link. The bus ride was about 2 hours. The journey was very straightforward. We just parked our car at Larkin Sentral bus terminal as early as 6:30 AM to catch the 7:00 AM bus schedule. The ticket is about RM12.80 per one way. The bus was spacious and it’s with good air-conditioning facilities. The bus has also its own compartment for our luggage.
MERSING ADVENTURE:
Mersing is a small town in Johor. It is actually one of the most visited towns in Johor by local and international tourists as it is the most convenient location for Ferry Terminal that connects to the beautiful Islands of Johor such as Pulau Rawa and Pulao Tioman.
Since RMCO is still ongoing, only local tourists are allowed to travel. The country has not yet opened the border for international tourists.
OTHER DISCOVERIES:
Aside from the gateway to the Islands, Mersing has also something to offer. You can stroll over their murals at their town building and fishing boat along the coastal area.
Guest can also explore the hilltop Masjid Jamek Bandar mosque which offers panoramic view of the area.
After having been exposed for few hours under the sun, I would recommend you to take rest for at least 30 minutes in their KFC there. We took our snacks there for a little refreshments to energize ourselves before we head to the Hilltop area. We also tried their Xiang Guo Bakery & Cake House which offers a decent spot for a meal such as pizza, Malay-style noodles, rice dishes and many more. You can also try their coffee or something sweet such as tiramisu or rich cheesecake. GOING BACK TO CITY CENTER: We took the same bus to get back Larkin Sentral Bus Terminal at 10:30 AM. The boarding process was very straightforward too and we reached Larkin Sentral at around 12:30 PM. ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ FRIENDLY REMINDERS:
