About location

Iskandar Puteri has served as a planned urban centre in Johor since the early 21st century. Formerly known as Nusajaya, it forms part of the wider Iskandar Malaysia development area beside the Straits of Johor, opposite Singapore. Kota Iskandar, the seat of Johor’s state administration, gives the city a civic focus, while Medini has developed around business, education and leisure districts. Legoland Malaysia Resort, which opened in 2012, is among its best-known family attractions. Broad roads, new neighbourhoods and low-rise commercial areas reflect a city shaped by large-scale planning rather than an old urban core. Its position near the Malaysia–Singapore border makes it closely connected to the economic geography of southern Johor.
