Chinese New Year is just around the corner – and that means festive food, ang pau and lively gatherings with family and friends. This year is a special one too, as we’ll be welcoming the Year of the Dragon!

Of course, what’s a festival without decorations? Even if your house isn’t decked out in full dragon glory, don’t fret, as you can still get your fill of dragons at our local malls! To give you an idea of where to go, we’ve compiled a list of shopping centres in the Klang Valley that have gone all-out for the Year of the Dragon!

1. Sunway Pyramid

Some claim Sunway Pyramid might be the crowning jewel of this year’s malls as regards Chinese New Year decorations. And, well, it’s a hard claim to dispute! With a resplendent Gold Dragon hovering over a grand temple fit for an emperor, the spectacle is enough to take one’s breath away.

Shoppers too can immerse themselves in the essence of the festival by dressing in traditional Chinese costumes for photos, participating in Hand Fan Painting and Chinese Mask and Dragon Head -making workshops, and enjoying the festive bazaar filled with beloved brands like Lo Hong Ka, Jaya Grocer, Eu Yan Sang, and more, creating unforgettable memories.

4. The Gardens Mall

Speaking of timeless, The Gardens Mall too has opted for a blast from the past, more specifically, Malaysia during the 1970s. Stroll around town and drop by the traditional medical hall to poke around for some herbs, or visit the tailor store for your New Year outfits. Then, take a break at the living room with a retro TV set in the background, or chill at the local kopitiam.

Guests who wish to take home a little bit of the nostalgia can drop by the Childhood booth on the Ground Floor to purchase some local snacks, toys, and beauty products. If Chinese New Year spring cleaning has got you worn out, head over to the Tempur roadshow in front of Isetan and let their team find you the right mattress and bed for a restful night.
