The existing MAWAR (Majlis Wanita Johor or Johor Ladies Council) house was lavishly restored to preserve the rich architectural design of this heritage of Johor. The completed building is a stunning, yet functional structure that blends well with the new majectic Mawar Building.

The MAWAR House Handicraft Centre offers hand-drawn and dyed batik cloths, batik paintings, straw mats and other goods for sale, making it a one-stop handicraft centre destined to be one of Johor's leading tourist attractions. The village is the place to go for a fascinating demonstration of traditional songket weaving, batik silk painting and the art of fine pottery.

Also within the vicinity, is the MAWAR Gallery, dedicated to famous ladies of Johor. The gallery operates from 10am through 4pm everyday except Wednesdays. For more information, please contact (607) 2235390 / 91.
