Fountain landmark Pavillion Shopping Centre KL

2nd time in KL and staying at the Prince Hotel, the nearest shopping centre was the Pavillion. This is a real modern shopping centre with just about every shop you can think of. There's an array of nice restaurants just outside at ground level and a fantastic fountain at the entrance.

By the way it is the Tallest Liuli Crystal Fountain in Malaysia endorsed by The Malaysia Book of Records. That's pretty impressive.

Sungei Wang Plaza - best place to shop in KL

Well KL is definately a shopping mecca!! Everywhere you look there's big shopping centres!

We had one just across the road and a few doors up from the Parkroyal so we stepped in for some last minute prezzies. As we were travelling light we didn't buy too much but Janine and I thought it might be a good thing to come back with the girls on a girly shopping long weekend sometime ;o)

2nd time in KL and hubby and I headed back to Sungei Wang for some shopping. Hubby found a bargain camera lense and I ended up purchasing a macro as well. I also bought heaps on nice summer tops. This is now our favourite place to shop in KL!

Shopping Times Square KL by aussirose

Times Square, another large shopping mall in KL is located near the Park Royal Hotel.

The interesting thing about this shopping centre is that it has a 5 star hotel (Berjaya Times Square), a theme park and an IMAX Theater.

Hubby and I found a glasses shop and hubby bought a new pair of expensive sunnies and I ordered a pair of subscription glasses. I also bought a stack of costume jewelry - there are some awsome 'bling' shops here ;o)

Beryl's Chocolate Kingdom: Chocolate Factory

Beryl's Chocolate Factory

Beryls was introduced to me during my visit by a cab driver. On the way back to our hotel from a DIY city tour, the friendly cab driver easily recognized us as tourists (we were talking in our native language with cameras hanging on our necks) and tried to be helpful by enumerating the "must sees and must dos" in KL. When the conversation veered towards shopping, that's when he dropped his most helpful suggestion "have you been to the chocolate factory? you must go there!".

The thought that it is something like Willy Wonka's where we can eat as much chocolates as we want really got us excited. Initially, we were disappointed that it was a store and not a factory. But the moment we stepped inside, our disappointment was replaced by excitement again.

The shop has an "old country" feeling as it was an old house converted into a store. We only got to sample a few small pieces, but we found the selection and the chocolate-y taste overwhelming.

What to buy: Beryls is a local chocolate brand. Their products contains high percentage of cocoa. And they have a wide selection, from the basic milk chocolate to dark chocolate, choco-coated fruits, even exotic ones like yogurt and spicy chocolate.

However, Beryls is not readily available in the airport's duty free shops and the selection is very limited. Hence, it is advised that you visit their store.

What to pay: Beryls is a bit expensive, even compared to some imported chocolates. I think their cheapest is about MYR 20 per box. Although, they sometimes offer promos like buy 5 +1.

Sungai Wang, Kuala Lumpur

Sungai Wang means "Money River". Chinese businessman believe that with a good name of money and river means it will bring prosperity to the shops in the mall. Believe it or not, Sungai Wang is of the oldest surviving shopping mall in KL, and still doing very well despite many new modern malls nearby Bukit Bintang.

It was built in 1977 and the most popular mall among Malaysians who visit Kuala Lumpur.

You can shop for camera, smart phones, man and woman fashion cloths, sporting goods, and etc. On the lower ground, you can find restaurants including fast foods and local foods. Sometimes if you are lucky, you can meet Chinese super stars here for autograph sessions especially during weekends.

Parkson Department Store is in the Mall.

Check out the website for more!

Warning: Try not to use your credit card in this mall, I heard there are many fault cases in this mall especially with those small outlets.

Starhill Gallery: Luxury Shopping Mall

Starhill Gallery, Kuala Lumpur

Starhill Gallery is the most luxury shopping mall with the most expensive branded shops in Kuala Lumpur. This exquisite mall is hidden inside between JW Marriott Hotel & The Westin KL, on Jalan Bukit Bintang. Most pedestrians won't notice the mall from Jalan Bukit Bintang. That is why the mall has less crowd, and most of the shoppers are either from the two five stars hotels or local wealthy clienteles. Anyway, this management does not restrict anyone to visit the mall. You will enjoy this cozy and classic yet modern design mall.

On the lower ground level, you will find restaurants serving fine dining from Western to Korean and local cuisines. This could be one of the luxury and romantic places to spend your time with the special someone or family members.

There have varieties of brands that I don't know, but one thing I know they are expensive stuffs. Check out its website!

Malaysia's first themed shopping and entertainment mall. The Egyptian designs is so cool I really like it.
The mall has an indoor ice skating rink. it's a huge mall with that host to many exclusive boutiques.
you can find all fast food outlets there.
The downside is the location it's far away from down town. taking a taxi cost a little fortune.

MUST GO IN HERE

We came across this place in Bukit Bintang, namely because there is a landrover sticking out of the second floor of the building. They have lots of jackets and shorts with many pockets, ideal for carrying everything you need. t-shirts, packs, pouches, sunglasses and a host of other things that one would expect to buy in such a store.
