Is there any good shopping place in Sabah, Malaysia ? |
Travel Info In particular, I want to buy some cheap DVDs, VCDs, or CDs. I also want to buy some casual wear. Travel Tips The main shopping centres in Sabah are located in Kota Kinabalu City. Most shopping centres offer a variety of different retail outlets, whereby each each shopping centre has its own uniqueness. You will be astonished at the wide choice offered! You can find almost anything you possibly could need, from souvenirs and antiques, over books to camping equipment, designer clothes, electronic goods and computers, and fresh foods. In shopping malls you also find pharmacies, food courts, one-stop photo labs and money changers, recreational facilities, hair dressers and centres for therapeutic massages as well as foot reflexology. In other major towns in Sabah (Sandakan, Tawau, Keningau, Kudat) you will find smaller malls that cater mainly to the local population and you might not find the same variety as in Kota Kinabalu. However, you will always find everything should you suddenly run out of films, batteries, food provisions and mineral water, and even basic medical supplies. Overall there are 5 large and 2 medium shopping malls in Kota Kinabalu. The largest is Centre Point, located on a 4-acre site in the centre of of KK and adjacent to the regional bus terminal. It has been operational since the early 90s and offers the largest choice. The second largest is the Karamunsing Complex. Amongst the newest malls is the KK Plaza Mall, which has only opened in 2001. It is located adjacent to the Kota Kinabalu City Central Market. Other smaller malls are Wawasan 2020 Mall, and the Likas Square Mall, which is slightly out of the downtown area, and Wisma Sabah, located next to the Wisma Merdeka Complex. At Wisma Sabah you find most tour operators and dive companies. Others emeraldsue has answered your question. If you are thinking of buying computer material, go to Karamunsing Complex and look for computer shop during sales season. I bought Kingston USB 2 GB for RM30 only. MP3 is so cheap as well. |
