It's our last trip of adventuring before we goes back to Johor Bahru, so we decided to visit this Tian Hou Goong Temple located at up hill quarry place and beside the Johor Riverside with good views. It was built in 1861 by chinese workers whom worked at the quarry rocks. It's located next to the Firefly Valley Leisure park at Jalan Kota Tinggi (around 800 meters before Kota Tinggi Traffic light) if cruising from Johor Bahru to Kota Tinggi.

The temple is facing the Johor River. The view is very nice and windy during day time.

There's a jetty leading to the temple entrance. There's many fishing boats around making their daily fishing trips.
