Johor Bahru District, Administrative district in Johor, Malaysia.

The Johor Bahru District covers multiple administrative zones called mukim, including Plentong, which spans 270 square kilometers of urban and residential areas.

The region developed from a rural landscape into an administrative center after 1859, when Plentong began as a Kangchu settlement known as Tey Chu Kang.

The district features diverse religious structures, including the Majodi Centre, Saint Joseph Church, Ban Fook Temple, and numerous mosques serving different faith communities.

The P-301 Muafakat Bus route connects residents throughout the district, while major highways provide direct access to Singapore and other Malaysian regions.

Mukim Plentong contains one of Johor's largest granite quarries and houses eleven distinct villages, each managed by designated village heads called Ketua Kampung.
