Hi fellow travelers,
I’m planning a trip to Kuala Lumpur and want to bring back some authentic Malaysian souvenirs and local products. I’ve heard that the city has some amazing malls and markets, but I’m not sure which ones are best for first-time visitors.
Some questions I have:
Which shopping malls or markets are the best for souvenirs like batik, handicrafts, pewter items, or local snacks?
Are there any hidden gems or less touristy spots where I can find unique, locally-made products?
How do these malls compare in terms of price, variety, and authenticity of goods?
Any tips for bargaining, navigating, or avoiding tourist traps?
Are there certain areas that are good for combining shopping with sightseeing?
I’d love to hear your personal experiences, favorite malls or markets, and tips for picking up authentic Malaysian products in Kuala Lumpur!
