MUST DO activities in JB ✨
I headed to JB for two days since it was a long weekend (ps it was national day weekend) to give myself a much needed self care day. PRETTY SURE EVERYONE DOES THIS WHEN THEY GO IN JB 😆 Surprisingly, I managed to check off everything in my to do list in just one day!!
To start off, we reached the checkpoint at 9:30am and thought we were very late as everybody would be rushing in already…at this point was lowkey PANICKING because our plans might need to shift around but we managed to clear and got in JB within 30mins!! 🤪
MY TO DO LIST IN JB:
✅ Movie
Since we were early, we booked the 11:30am time slot to watch Fantastic Four at Mid Valley Getha Lux Suites hall. I always come back for this whenever we have the chance!Before the movie, we had time to drop by JD sport to try on some shoes that I have been eyeing on hehe
✅ Full Body Massage
Immediately booked for a 2h body massage at Tang Retreat, luckily they had slots at 3:30pm. I have been to this place once when they were not very popular yet, but somehow this place blew up!! Now within one hour after their opening time, they were almost fully booked for full body massages??!! After the massage, they served tea and desserts for us to enjoy. Just nice they were having their summer menu which was super refreshing 😌
✅ Hair Appointment
I have booked an appointment in advance to cut my hair and do hair treatment. I’m usually very very picky with the hair stylist, but I managed to find a hair stylist that I quite like in Studio M. Will definitely be going back there more often!!
Not forgetting the EATING and SHOPPING which I did not include in my list!! Anyways, I cleared what I wanted to do in the first day and I didn’t have any plan for the second day.. so we just stayed around KSL to eat and went for a foot massage before heading back home!
Looking forward to my next jb trip to find more activities to do there!! 🤩

If you're planning a trip to Johor Bahru and want to make the most out of your visit beyond the usual sightseeing, I highly recommend including some self-care activities like I did. Besides the movie, massage, and hair appointment that made my day so fulfilling, don't miss out on exploring local shopping spots like JD Sports where you can try on the latest footwear trends and snag great deals. Also, for an extra touch of relaxation, consider stopping by some foot massage parlors around KSL for a soothing end to your day before heading back. These local spots often offer cozy atmospheres and excellent service at reasonable prices. During your downtime, take advantage of Johor Bahru’s diverse food scene. From local street food delights to modern cafes, there's something for every palate. Personally, I enjoyed some delicious meals around KSL, making it a convenient hub for both dining and shopping. Lastly, the summer menu treats served at Tang Retreat after my massage — like refreshing lime and floral teas — added a unique and pleasant finishing touch to my experience. Planning ahead and booking appointments early is key here, as popular spots tend to fill up quickly, especially on weekends and long holidays. Hope my experience helps you create your own perfect self-care itinerary in Johor Bahru!
Looks like a super fruitful getaway!
