Bangunan Sultan Ibrahim

The Bangunan Sultan Ibrahim  is a former state secretariat building of Johor.  It is located at Bukit Timbalan in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. The building was constructed between 1936 and 1939 and was completed in 1940 as the British colonial government attempted to streamline the state’s administration. It was officially opened by the late Sultan Ibrahim of Johor.

It was also the tallest building in Malaya during the pre-Merdeka era. In Johr Bahru itself, it stood unchallenged as the tallest building in the town until the completion of the Merlin Tower in the 1970s.

You will need to ask the permission of the security guards to enter the compound of this building. From here, you can see the Straits of Johor and the skyline of Singapore. You will probably want to take some photos of the building and the view of the surroundings while here.
