Malaysia Guide (Thread 9)

[jhaynee]

worth it naman po ba mag jpo?

[pret_ty68]

^
Yes. specially if you like branded items. Malaki ang discount. Mga taga singapore nga daw usually shop there. If pupunta ka doon bring cash kasi mas malaki ang discount na makukuha if magdala ka nang cash.

[phurple0515]

^ yes kasi usually yong iba me additional 3% ata pag nag-card. 

jhaynee, local foods must try, andon lahat sa lot 10 food court.  that place has all the famous foods in Malaysia.  pero usually mga local chinese foods andon.  if malaysian food naman, if you want to try sa mga coffee shops like Old Town, or Kopitiam. or sa food court sa KLCC mall sa Suria

[supladitang cute]

Must try yung teh tahrik. Plus I love shopping in H&M there. Being a super fan of H&M, dito lang ata yung pinaka nagenjoy ako. Unlike in Korea na depende if nagpunta ka dun ng summer. From corporate clothes to casual! I shopped in Lot 10 branch.

[phurple0515]

oh, add in the local 'kopi' here you can take it as 'iced kopi' or 'hot kopi'

[jhaynee]

Super thank you po sa mga reply mga sis.. Btw, San po Banda yung lot 10? how to get there from agora hotel? Sa Monday na side trip namin sa kl from sg.. Excited na ko.. I'm really into food trip dn kasi..

[phurple0515]

sis from agora hotel punta ka lang sa may main road ng bukit bintang and pag nakita mo H&M, lot 10 na yon.  Also, it's just opposite the Bukit Bintang monorail station.  alam ko tanaw mo na from hotel ang Lot10

[phurple0515]

^ sis are you taking a flight back to SG? if yes, i think it's enough time to leave KL 3pm.  pero pag bus, anticipate for any traffic or whatsoever na rin.  pag bus, 5-6 hrs ang byahe.  baka mamadali kayo. 

it's ok to go to batu caves in the morning. 

[jhaynee]

By bus po.. Kung 1pm ok na siguro sis? Yung hoho mga ilang hours macoconsume kung madaliang photo ops per area? Kaso parang gusto ko siga e consider in the morning din..

[phurple0515]

^ sis wag na kayong mag-hoho kung limited time lang kayo.  you can just go to places like KL Tower and petronas tower via Trains here.  usually, HOHO full day yan kung pupuntahan mo lahat at para masulit ang bayad.  Last time sumama ako ng HOHO it took us 9am-6pm to start from Petronas and end there as well.

Share ko lang review on some places na napuntahan ko on my second visit to Malaysia

Putrajaya - great for taking pictures since dito makikita yung mga mosque and other beautiful buildings in malaysia. Nandito yung blue mosque and yung pink mosque.

Melaka - We were able to reach melaka at around 4 pm in the afternoon which is also a good thing since the weather was too hot. umaabot daw nang 39 degrees on that day. Sumakay kami sa Melaka tower on top makikita mo ang buong melaka. Melaka is a beautiful place, it will not be called a world heritage city kung hindi. Gusto ko nga sanang ikutin kaya lang yung ibang kasama ko ayaw na kasi sobrang init and kailangan na namin bumalik nang KL on the same day. Pero nakapasok pa rin naman kami sa maritime museum and naglakad lakad nang konti dun sa place kung saan makikita yung fountain, red clock tower, windwill and christ church. Nakakaaliw talaga yung design nang mga trishaw nila sumakay kami dun sa hello kitty yung design.

Legoland - Maganda naman sya pero for the price I don't think it's worth it siguro kung may kasamang kids pwede pa pero for adults para sa akin hindi sulit yung price.

Johor Bahru Factory Outlet - Ang ganda pumunta dito kung mahilig ka sa signature items dahil malaki ang discount. Sayang nga lang mga three hours lang kami dito sana pala yung time namin sa legoland dito na lang pero ok na rin na nag legoland para hindi ako masyadong napagastos.

Genting - It's my second time to ride the genting cable car but my first time to visit strawberry farm. Maganda naman sa strawberry farm pwede kang pumitas nang strawberry pero syempre yung pinitas mo bibilhin mo na. Pag labas nang farm may bilihan dun nang souvenir items may kamahalan nga lang.

Batu Caves - May falls pala dito hindi ko kasi napansin nung pagpunta ko dati pero hindi naman kami pumasok may fee kasi na RM 15 natatanaw rin naman sa labas tapos hindi naman kami magtatagal nang batu caves

We just got back from Penang and it is very HOT! But despite the weather, we got to go on a food tripping spree and the place was gorgeous! A must visit place I think and should be in the radar of Filipino travellers.

[phurple0515]

^ yes sis, Penang is indeed famous for their food there.  Lahat ng masarap kainin andon, hehhe!  Drew even highlighted this sa Byahe ni Drew show niya when he featured Malaysia.

[little_princess]

^ the food is good! kaya lang I think I got food poisoned somehow that I got sick when we went on the cruise na. plus the weather was scorching! hehe but enjoy pa din, we stayed in this lovely boutique hotel called Campbell House.

[neriann28]

I love Teh Tahrik!

[phurple0515]

^ sis ko naman loves their local coffee

[little_princess]

teh tahrik from malaysia is very different from the ones here in manila. the penang white coffee is very good too!

[saskia]

Question po: if you have 1 day in KL, what will you do there? Must see, must try and must buy. Main reason is gusto lang talaga namin makita ang petronas. 

[pret_ty68]

^

Kung 1 day lang

Petronas Towers - mag skybridge kayo para mas ma a appreciate nyo ang petronas at KL pag nag skybridge kayo

Batu Caves

Genting - must try yung cable car

Yan yung mga pinuntahan at  ginawa namin nung 1 day lang kami

Must buy: Famous Amos - meron sa genting nito pagbaba sa cable car in case di na nayo makapamili

[saskia]

^ thank u. Will consider yung mga binanggit mo.
