Walkabout
It’s our first video of 2025, so we decided to ride the LRT to Bukit Jalil. We left home at 9:45am and walked a short distance to the Bandaraya LRT Station.
We caught a train on the Putra Heights Line at 10:00am for RM3.50 (≈USD/EUR0.80) and arrived at Awan Besar half an hour later. From there, we made our way to the bus hub and hopped onto the free double decker shuttle bus to Pavilion Bukit Jalil.
We reached the mall at 10:45am. Interestingly, the street level sits at Level 3, so we made our way down to Level 2, where we took photos of the Chinese New Year decorations before continuing our stroll to Level 1.
Early Lunch at Nanyang Café
We spotted Nanyang Café with no queues — a rare sight — so we settled in for an early lunch. Our meal came to RM78.30, and of everything we ordered, the Nanyang Tea stood out. I’d definitely come back for that.
Jewellery & Jersey
We resumed exploring and headed up to Level 4, where we browsed Elfi Jewellery for Cat’s belated birthday present. After some time, Cat decided on a few items, including a pair of couple rings. The total came to RM1,022.00 (≈ USD227/EUR222).
Her ring needed resizing, so we were asked to return later.
We continued our stroll and walked into an Adidas store. Here, I finally found the Manchester United blue away jersey in my size for RM329.00 (≈ USD73/EUR71).
We then doubled back to Elfi Jewellery to collect Cat’s ring before rushing up to the top floor for a better view of the lion dance happening at the main foyer.
Ice Cream & Bath & Body Works
After the performance, we treated ourselves to a scoop of ice cream each at Inside Scoop, then headed up to Level 3 to visit Bath & Body Works. We walked out with RM172.80 (≈ USD44/EUR37) worth of scented products.
By then, it was past 3:00pm.
Heading Back
We stepped out of Pavilion Bukit Jalil and were lucky enough to catch the 3:20pm free shuttle bus back to Awan Besar LRT Station — the next one wouldn’t arrive until 5:10pm.
We caught the LRT back to Bandaraya for the same RM3.50 (≈ USD/EUR0.80) fare and arrived half an hour later. From there, we walked into Sogo KL for our final errand of the day: pillows.
We headed up to Level 5 and, after consulting with the salesperson, bought five pillows — three firm ones and two fluffy ones — for RM254.00 (≈ USD57/EUR55).
With that, we walked back home.
What’s Next
Stay tuned for our return trip to Batavia in a couple of weeks.
