Cyberjaya Street Mall

The Street Mall next to the bus station has seen it's status diminished as Shatsbury Square has grown.  And with a giant shopping mall in late stages of construction just across the road, it will be quite literally in the shadow of another rival before too long.  But that doesn't mean that there aren't a few good reasons to pay a visit to the Street Mall.

Alamanda Shopping Centre

If you live in Cyberjaya for a while, then chances are you are going to have to pay a visit to the Alamanda mall in Putrajaya at some stage.  Although future Cyberjaya residents will no doubt have a selection of swanky malls on their doorstop, this is not currently the case.  Right now, you must do your grocery shopping in one of the mini markets, or else via Tesco online.  There are a decent amount of restaurants to serve the working population, but you won't find clothes or shoe shops anywhere.  Likewise, the cinema is a work in progress at time of writing, although if you are reading this from the future you may not be able to envisage a weekend without a visit to the Cyberjaya multiplex.  (How is the future anyhow?  Are you guys zipping around in hover-cars yet? Seems like we've been waiting forever for those things to get going).

Putrajaya Night Market

You might not expect it amidst the gleaming metallic structures of Putrajaya, but there is a pretty impressive street market here every Friday from sundown.  Along with a variety of hot food from different vendors ranging from burgers and hot dogs (with chicken) to Malaysian nasi lemak and murtabak, there is something for all tastes.  Less so for vegans, but you guys can eat corn.  Stop complaining, it's good corn.

Cyberjaya: It's Not Finished Yet, Come Back a Bit Later.

Cinema in Cyberjaya

There have always been lofty ambitions for the new city of Cyberjaya.  Envisioned as a place to 'live, work, study and play', I think it is fair to go that there is a way still to go on at least a couple of those aspirations.

Kuala Lumpur Top Ten: Central Market

This is the place for all of your souvenir shopping needs.  Or some of them, anyhow.  And the market is housed in a newly refurbished art deco style building, so it looks pretty good too.



This is not the kind of place you are going to stumble upon hidden treasures, it's all geared towards the tourist dollar but still worth a visit just the same.

Shaftsbury Square

One of the larger strip-malls in Cyberjaya is known as Shaftsbury Square, so you will most probably end up here at some stage if you are living in the area.

So, What Wonders Await?

Glad you asked.  First off, and most importantly, there's this:

Can you try out a 737NG Flight Simulator in your local shopping centre?  I did not think so.  Can't guarantee how long this offer is going to be in town though, so grab it while you can.
