 | Johor Bahru Nightlife | Tips 1 - 10 of 13 |  |
Popular Nightlife | Miscellaneous Nightlife Tips | All Tips (13) There are many karaoke lounges in JB. Most of them attract people from Singapore during the weekends. Most of the lounges have "ladies" for the company of those lonely men.
I used to go to Karaoke to sing with my friends. We do not "call" any gals, we just go there for singing.
Usually, we will book a room for ourselves and order some drinks and titbits... and choose the songs we want to sing, however loud we want.
The official closing time of these karaokes is 1 am (if not earlier). However, you can continue till however late or early you want cos the owner will only close their main door. Remember the rooms are charged hourly. The bigger the rooms, the higher the charges. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 | |  |  | Pasar Malam - Night market.: Pasar Malam. | Tip Rating:    |  |  | |  |
Having a stroll in these weekly, open air night markets is very interesting. The tradition has been well maintained and is a vital highlights in the life of people in Malaysia. In these night markets, one can find a variety of stalls selling vegetables, meat, fruits, titbits, different types of cooked food, drinks, household utensils, clothes, etc. These vendors usually move from one place to another every day.
You get to see vendors arriving and starting to set up their stalls at about 4.30pm and will usually end at 10pm. Usually it is very crowded with housewifes, children, working class people. The peak hours when there's a lot of people is around 6pm till about 9pm. I love to visit pasar malam for dinner!
Warning: not a sit-down dinner, but a take-away dinner, or you eat as you walk (which you can see). ;-)
These night markets are usually situated in housing estates for the residents. And on different days of the week.
The following is the locations of night markets in JB:
Monday: Century Gardens, Kg. Melayu, Kota Tinggi, Permas Jaya

I have noticed many "westerners" classified nightlife with pubs, discos, etc, whatever with alcohol. I do not go to any of the discos or pubs in JB. These places in JB are usually quite seedy related to drugs abuse. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
