About Muar

This Johor river town preserves shophouse architecture and mee bandung noodle culture—a dish so tied to Muar identity that eating elsewhere tastes like imitation. Colonial waterfront buildings slope toward the river, and the town moves at a pace reflecting its status as trading post rather than tourist destination.
