VISITING GALERI AURA ISLAM IN ANJUNG MYDIN

24th JANUARY 2026 ~ This was an impromptu decision to get into an exhibition at Anjung Mydin. Thank God, my friend, Mr. Redzuan, agreed to join me once I spotted the mini gallery called "Galeri Aura Islam" [TRANSLATE: Islamic Vibe Gallery].

There were a busload of school students when we arrived. The group was accompanied by a guide in the gallery.

This gallery showcased more than 300 authentic artifacts of Islamic civilization. I had once went to see the same exhibition in 2019 in Persada Johor but that time it was free if I am not mistaken. [READ HERE]

If you are around Iskandar Puteri area, this could be an option for an educational activity especially when there are not many museums you can find in Johor Bahru. The entrance ticket for an adult is RM30.

That was our first educational trip together, other than the regular trips to the malls and eating places. I am glad my friend enjoyed the short visit and I could take him to other museum next time.

THE ACTIVITY AFTER ATTENDING A LONG MEETING

I had to attend a meeting at SMK Gelang Patah (again) so this should be the best chance to get Pn. Rokiah Junoh a.k.a Kak Kiah, an ex-colleague who is more like a sister to me, for a gossiping session. The last time I met her was on the 12th day of Eid about two months ago. [Read about it HERE]. So we went to this place called Anjung in Nusajaya and had lunch at the food court there.

Sitting in a meeting for long hours is definitely not good but there should always be a way to make it some sort of a blessing in disguise.

Thanks Kak Kiah for the time gossip over lunch. Too bad we couldn't stay long as she had to get back to the office. Hopefully there will be other meeting which will be held at Gelang Patah after this.
