When you are visiting Kuala Lumpur or KL in short, there are a few shopping malls that you should visit. If you stay around Bukit Bintang area, there are quite a few shopping malls around the area and it's in walking distance.
Recommended Shopping Malls are:
Sungai Wang
This place a lot of retail and really cheap for visitors visiting from Europe, USA or Australia. Before you buy a new fashionable bag or shirt, be sure to ask if you can get a discount. Normal discount is between 10%-15%. There are frequent sales in most retails so you can get a good bargain.
There are quite a few gadgets outlets in Sungai Wang or BB Plaza. Before you buy, please check the prices for all the shops. You can come back again to buy the best offered camera.
For food, there's a great local style food court on the 4 floor. It's a bit warm but they have big fans so it's ok. Mostly serve Chinese food but I heard there are Halal store too.
BB Plaza
This place is offer local product and keepsakes. There are relatively cheap and reasonable price items. There is one camera shop at the ground floor that offers camera at a good price. Be sure to bargain or freebies.
Pavilion Shopping Mall
This is the high end shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur. All the branded stuff you love is here. From Gucci to LV, from watches to jewelries, if this fancy you, get something for yourself.
There are a lot of great food outlets here that you must try. For local food, go to the food court at lower ground floor. Most of the stores serve good food. If you're not sure which one you like, just follow the crowd. Besides the food court, there are quite a few great restaurants on the top floor. I recommend that you go for Chinese restaurants or Asian restaurant. Middle East restaurants are not at par.
You must try the fish spa next to the cinema. It's either you love it or hate it. OK, you won't hate it but you can't get pass that weird feeling the tiny fishes nibble at your feet. For first timers, you will feel ticklish for a few minutes, after that you'll like it. For RM38, you'll get a clean, soft feet after 30 minutes fish spa.
Suria KLCC Shopping Mall
One of the crowded shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur. Come as early as 8.30am to queue for an entrance ticket to the sky bridge. It's free but they only allow limited numbers of visitors a day. You can get your breakfast at 4th floor or 2nd floor food court. If you fancy eating at a restaurant for lunch, all the restaurants located at 4th floor are good but a bit pricey.
This place offer branded goods too. If you are looking for reasonable price items, you can visit Parkson or Isetan. There are a number of local brand stores too for those who are looking for quality bargain. There's a Mark & Spencer but I'm not sure of the price compare to overseas. Watches, spa, jewelries are all here.
If you want to visit these place by walking, I recommend you stay at 3 or 4 stars hotel at Bukit Bintang area.
