About this audio guide
This guide to Taman Merdeka in Johor Bahru begins in twenty fifteen, with the newly crowned Sultan of Johor signing a plaque beside his family to open something far less solemn than a palace. It follows a park named for Malaysia's independence struggle, launched in twenty eleven for the city's everyday leisure. Stand by the lily-covered lake to hear about the joggers' lap and the crowds that gather here on foot.
