Petaling Jaya is the place for you if the hustle and bustle of a busy city is not your thing. Commonly known as PJ by locals, this area is more relaxed and the favorite shopping malls of locals’ are located. You’ll not only find 1 Utama - one of the largest shopping malls in Malaysia, but also The Curve, Paradigm Mall and Sunway Pyramid just to name a few.
If you’re looking for authentic local food that’s delicious, cost-friendly and convenient to get to, you can find them in PJ, not in the heart of KL. It also has a wider range of cafes that are both IG-worthy and serve up delicious food all around town. The best thing is that these places are not overly flocked by tourists!
