I have never heard of it. It has a pretty nice skyline.

7.5/10

Not bad, architecture is poor thougth. Shape is nice.
Best place to take photos is from Singapore. I can see the tallest few from my house peeping above the trees.

7/10

The skyline isn't very impressive, nor its height... but its better than some others. 6.0/10

Pablo · January 7th, 2003, 11:48 AM

6.5/10 quite nice...

kiku99 · January 8th, 2003, 01:07 AM

Looks kinda similar to a Chinese city.

Quote:

for a city of that size it looks impressive

I agree.

Not bad. I believe it's very close to Singapore right?

SUNNI · January 8th, 2003, 04:21 AM

nice city, its very well lit at night, good for its size 8

"I believe it's very close to Singapore right?"
Yes! You can see Singapore from this picture(trees in the foreground)

Nice skylines
But it will be better if the buildings are taller

Jeff from Winnipeg · January 10th, 2003, 05:43 AM

I'm surprised people actually notice it being close to Singapore... Not bad all things considered ->6.5/10

renell · January 12th, 2003, 06:34 PM

8/10

Webshots just put out some beautiful new pictures of this city. Colorful at night, definately Asian. I give it a 7/10.

Monkey · March 26th, 2003, 07:38 AM

Thanks for giving us several quite different shots of Johor Bahru, Baqthier! Somehow I have the feeling they add up quite nicely to a whole impression. Actually, due to their different colors and heights, make up for a quite interesting and varied skyline. A 7.

March 26th, 2003, 05:38 PM

The city itself looks kinda nice. but not its skyline. 4.5

March 26th, 2003, 11:55 PM
