malls in Kuala Lumpur that will keep even the most avid shopping enthusiasts on
their toes.

For tourists, the sight of the Petronas Twin Towers
usually evokes a feeling of awe and wonder. There’s also the shopping benefit
housed in six-storeys at the foot of the towers, Suria KLCC. Its prime location, easy access and over 320
upscale stores make this shopping destination a must-visit. Other than
shopping, this complex is also home to the Petronas Art Gallery, the
Philharmonic Orchestra, Petrosains, Aquaria KLCC,
KLCC Park and also the famous KL Convention Centre where several big events
take place every year. It also happens to be a convenient stop for the Kelana Jaya LRT line.

This 1.37 million square ft white marble
building was opened in 2007 and is home to more than 450 retailers. Located in
the prime Bukit Bintang area, this upscale addition
offers a combination of both indoor and outdoor shopping. The front of the mall
is usually congested with motorists due to its location on Jalan
Bukit Bintang and it is easily recognizable by the
installation of the tallest Liuli Crystal fountain in
Malaysia. Any coins tossed into the fountain is
donated to charity. This mall is definitely designed for shoppers with deeper
pockets and a taste for international designer labels and speciality
retailers. For a bite to eat, you can choose from many restaurants and
eateries, as well as a food court (Gourmet Emporium).

50,000 square ft spa and relaxation centre (the Pamper Zone). For a bite to eat, you can always

bridge and underground corridor. Visitors to this sprawling mall are able to
satisfy their shopping desires with a nice mix of mid to high-end retailers.
Mid Valley Megamall is also home to a popular convention centre,

Locals refer to this mall as LYP or Low Yat and
there’s even a popular forum online with the same name. It’s located directly
opposite Berjaya Times Square and most visitors to this mall are looking to
score or bargain for electronic and IT related products. Here, you’ll find a
wide selection of stores (both small and large) and the great thing about
shopping here is the opportunity to negotiate for what you want. If you’re
feeling peckish, you can always visit the food court
below and enjoy some local cuisine as well as a variety of Korean and Japanese favourites.

It’s a well-known shopping destination for cheap retail therapy and it also
happens to be a convenient pit stop in the city’s Golden Triangle area. This
1.2 million square ft complex houses a large variety
of kiosks and small shops that offer merchandise ranging from handphones and computer accessories to clothing and women’s
costume jewellery. If you’re interested in getting
