Semerah (Jawi; سميره; Chinese: 圣模那) is a town in both Batu Pahat District and Muar District in Johor, Malaysia.[1]

This town is basically a main street with old shophouses and a road to Semerah wet market (Pasar Semerah). They are mainly wooden structures with little or no civil foundation; some were rebuilt into concrete structures after fire damage or own effort. The east part of Semereh is within Muar town. There is a prominent Chinese Temple known as Tokong Kwang Yim Keng which was established before 1938, it is a prominent landmark and tourist attraction for the town.
