Hutan Bandar

Hutan Bandar is one of the rare places of green tranquility in Johor Bahru. It spans over 32 hectares and is maintained by MBJB (Johor Bahru City Council). Hutan Bandar in Malay means “Jungle in the City”. Open daily with free admission, Hutan Bandar is located a 5 minutes drive from Larkin Bus Terminal (or a 20 minutes drive from the City Center). It is a popular spot for family and school excursions. In addition, young people come here for picnic, camping, a game of basketball as well as wedding photo shoots.

In the deeper parts of Hutan Bandar, you would literally feel disconnected from the hustle and bustle of JB. It’s a really strange, yet calming feeling to have, especially over the weekend after a full week of corporate battles and mental drain.

Some of the facilities available at Hutan Bandar are:
Lots of lush green flora.
Seven scenic lakes.
Children’s playgrounds.
Jungle Trek.
Exercise facilities.
Camping site.
Children’s swimming pool.
There are ample of parking lots and shops selling food and drinks. Entrance to Hutan Bandar Parking Space Visitor Entrance Fountain at the Visitor Entrance Resting Area at Hutan Bandar Game of basketball at Hutan Bandar Playground at Hutan Bandar Couple having a relaxing moment at Hutan Bandar
