Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple
Jalan Tun Abdul Razak 1/1, Wadihana, 80300 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple is a verified Johor Bahru attraction within the city area of Wadihana, and the official Tourism Johor listing identifies it as a major culture-and-heritage site rather than a peripheral excursion. That page gives the full address, states that it opens daily from 10.00am to 10.00pm, and notes an admission fee, which clearly supports current visitor use. Tourism Johor also describes it as the first glass temple in Malaysia and in the world, while JBQR presents it as an active Hindu temple with more than a century of history. Together, those official and quasi-official sources establish both identity and present-day visitor relevance. What makes the stop worthwhile is the temple’s unusual decorative programme rather than sheer scale. Tourism Johor says the walls, ceilings and pillars are extensively covered with stained-glass mirrors, creating a highly reflective interior that differs sharply from Johor Bahru’s civic buildings and colonial-era landmarks. JBQR additionally frames it as a living place of worship, so this is not a museum set-piece but a devotional site that welcomes respectful visitors. It works especially well for travellers seeking a distinctive city-centre stop with clear local character. Modest dress, quiet behaviour and shoe removal should be expected during a visit.
