The Gardens Mall in Kuala Lumpur is not your typical, two-story atrium with moderately priced clothing and fast food restaurants: rather this Klang Valley staple is the perfect example of how understated and elegant some malls can be. Opened in 2007, it has a façade of classic-brown panelled walls and faux greenery. Inside its noticeable design features include solid colours and sleek, straight lines with sharp corners, with few accent fixtures, resulting in a clean and open look.

Under its roof you will find some of the ritziest shops around, with anchor tenants including Japanese big-box retailer Isetan, US bookstore chain Borders, UK department giant Robinsons and Malaysia’s largest movie franchise Golden Screen Cinemas. The mall specialises in high end brands, with marques such as Banana Republic, Coach, DKNY, Hermes and Michael Kors well represented.

The lower ground floor at The Gardens Mall is dedicated to a rather sprawling food court where you can enjoy local specialties and even some western food (pizza and pasta), but it is the restaurants surrounding it that really are the best places to indulge. Our favourite is Alexis, which specialises in western food (plus it has a great cocktail menu), or enjoy some incredibly fresh sushi at Sushi Zanmai on the third floor: if this does not entice you, the mall’s choices of 30 restaurants are sure to please even the most picky visitor.

More than just a shopping centre, The Gardens Mall Kuala Lumpur is a complete entertainment experience. Do not forget to check out the ground floor walkways outside the central courtyard - they are a great place to people-watch as people come and go between Mid Valley Megamall and The Gardens Mall. Movie enthusiasts can enjoy the fifth floor’s Golden Screen Cinema, Malaysia's only boutique cinema with seven halls, two of which are Gold Class. One floor up is Vertigo, one of the city’s most popular rooftop bars and dance clubs, plus there is also a branch of popular karaoke bar, Red Box on site.  

If you are using Kuala Lumpur’s public transportation system then the KL Komuter Mid Valley Station will take you almost directly to The Gardens’ doorstep. Also, several RapidKL public buses – U66, U84, U85, U87 and T631 – arrive at Mid Valley Megamall’s North Court entrance, making it easy to walk over to the mall.
