How to spend 2 days in Johor Bahru

🏨 Accommodation: Grand Paragon Hotel ⸻ Day 1 – Arrival & Dinner • Check-in at Grand Paragon Hotel (early check-in may be possible if you arrive before 2 PM). • Dinner & drinks at Rockafellas (seafood/bar vibe, often live music on weekends). • 🛍️ Optional: Explore Pasar Karat Night Market (opens after 6 PM) – good for quirky finds and local snacks. 💡 Travel Hacks: • Use Grab app for easy and affordable rides. • Exchange a bit of cash in Singapore – money changers near KSL also have good rates. • Bring your own tote bag or reusable bag if you plan to shop at the night market. ⸻ Day 2 – Café Hopping & Shopping • Hotel breakfast (included with stay, buffet-style). • Nimmies Pastry Café – brunch spot with creative dishes. 📸 Great for photos. • August Drip Coffee – known for slow bar/pour-overs. 🍰 Try their house cakes too! • Shop at KSL Mall – fashion, massage, beauty salons, budget phone accessories. 💡 Tips & Tricks: • Visit Nimmies early (9–10 AM) to avoid queues. • KSL salons offer affordable mani-pedi, rebonding, or haircuts – no appointment needed. • Keep MySejahtera app installed (some places still ask for it). • Bring a portable charger – long café + mall days drain your phone fast. #johorbahru #jbtrip #weekendgetaway #shorttrip #travelmalaysia #malaysiatrip #explorejb #jbitinerary #2daytrip #cityescape #crossbordertravel
