About this audio guide
This guide to Danga Park in Johor Bahru stands on the young waterfront where the Skudai and Danga rivers meet the Straits of Johor, and on the developer who pitched a waterfront city when nobody would back him. It also takes you down the shore road to the seafood restaurants, their live tanks and the classic dishes on their menus. Best heard at the edge of the promenade near sunset.
