Johor Trip : Legoland Malaysia, Thomas Town & Sanrio Hello Kitty Town

Earlier this year, just right before the school starts in 2019, we went to Johor for a short trip to visit Legoland Malaysia, Thomas Town and Sanrio Hello Kitty Town. We had a wonderful family bonding time and the kids had lots of fun! It was an enjoyable trip and we had an amazing time with lots of fun.

We drove to Legoland Malaysia which is just about 5 minutes from our hotel. I parked at Mall of Medini coz it’s nearer to Legoland Malaysia and parking is slightly cheaper. Getting in to Legoland Malaysia theme park is a breeze for us as I purchased the tickets in advance from Klook. If you haven’t got a Klook account, do sign up with this code 8H95P to get a RM15 credit where you can use to book for any activity.

MINILAND is the area where you can see true-to-life miniature version of Asia’s iconic landmarks built with over 30 million Lego bricks. Some of the icons and attractions are animated at the push of a button where you can enjoy sights and sounds from the work of art.

We spent a whole day at Legoland Malaysia and believe it or not, we couldn’t finish all the rides. We rode on almost all the interesting rides but couldn’t cover all the parks as it rained in the afternoon. It was a memorable and fun day for the kids at Legoland Malaysia. Get your Legoland in Johor Bahru ( Theme Park + Water Park ) tickets at a good deal here. Further, you get to skip the queue for tickets and enter the park with your printed voucher.

Had our dinner at Restaurant Teck Sing in Johor Bahru.

Had our dinner at Restaurant Teck Sing in Johor Bahru. Ordered their signature curry fish head, paper baked chicken, fu yong egg and minced pork beancurd. The paper baked chicken was flavorful but I felt that it’s a bit dry. The curry fish head was good as the fish is fresh but I find that the gravy is a bit watery. I think I’ve had better ones in KL.

We visited both Sanrio Hello Kitty Town & Thomas Town as it’s walking distance from Hotel Jen Puteri Harbour.

This blog is a platform to share what I love in life: food (eat), travel (play), photography (art) and life (thoughts and ideas). With passion for food, I share my foodie adventures and indulgences here. “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

Traveling makes us a better human being as we recognise the similarities and celebrate the differences of cultures between where we travel to and where we come from. “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Photography do more than just capturing the best moments in our lives; they also help us tell our life stories. “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
