Kota Tinggi, town, West Malaysia, on the Johor River, north of its estuary at the Singapore Strait. It was one of the river capitals (1685–99) of the Johore-Riau (Riouw) kingdom. The modern town is an administrative centre and petroleum depot for an area of rubber plantations and tin mining. It is linked by road to the cities of Johor Bahru and Mersing. Immediately north on Mount Muntahak (2,080 feet [634 metres]) are the scenic Kota Tinggi Waterfalls, a popular tourist attraction; the highest cataract drops 80 feet (24 metres) into the Pelepah River. The historic site of Johore Lama (Old Johore) is downriver from Kota Tinggi near the straits. Pop. (2000 prelim.) 39,006.
