Welcome to Johor Zoo, Malaysia






Welcome to Johor Zoo, Malaysia. It is situated at the south of Peninsular Malaysia (i.e. North of the Republic of Singapore) and it is believed to be one of the oldest in Asia.

The exact location is at Jalan Gertak Merah, 80000 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia. Operating hours from 8.00am to 6.00pm daily.

The entrance fee for an adult is RM2.00 and for a child is RM1.00; perhaps it is one of the most reasonable fees in this South East Asia Region ! It is undoubtedly a good place for family outings during the weekends where quality time could be spent together more fruitfully rather than spending time strolling in the shopping malls !! You won't be disappointed, that's for sure !
