Muar District is a district to the northwest of Johor. It used to comprise the whole area from Batu Pahat District right up to the border with Malacca, but recently Tangkak District was created out of Muar District. Now Muar District lies to the south of the Muar River only.

Muar District is now bordered by Tangkak District to the west, Segamat District to the north, Batu Pahat District to the east, and the Straits of Malacca to the south.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
