We stayed at Marciella Hotel in Bandung...really comfy bed!Love the bedsheet!

The first day agenda is SHOPPING! Hehehe...I know many of you girls like this one! Bandung is definitely a shopping heaven...let's see where to shop at Bandung...
For a start, we went to the Factory Outlets....there are sooo many outlets here to choose from...
The most expensive outlet, Rumah Mode is the first factory outlet in Bandung. Rumah Mode is beautifully landscaped. The upper class ones usually shops here. You even have to pay before enter, unlike other outlets where the parking is free. TIPS : Don't shop here because the price here is about rp30,000 (RM10) more expensive than other outlets. Believe me, the clothes are the same..it's expensive because it's popular. Just stop by here to take pictures, like I did!
You can see all the outlets/shops here are built like big houses, each with its own designs....
Among other fashion outlets are....
This is my favourite fashion outlet...Central Branded Outlet...lots of nice and reasonable branded kids clothes!
Next shopping place is of course, Pasar Baru. This place is similar to Pasar Siti Khadijah at Kelantan. You can find everything here....ready made clothes, batik clothes, telekung, Bandung t-shirts, 'kain pasang', jubah and many more. As Malay would say, you'll become "rambang mata" here...hehe. TIPS : Just bring lots of money and brushen up your bargaining skills!
There are EIGHT FLOORS of shops at Pasar Baru for you to explore..the 'telekung' here are very nice and all the items are cheaper compared in Malaysia. I definitely can spend an entire day or more shopping at Pasar Baru! :-)
For all jean lovers out there, Toko Tiga is a must visit place! Here, many branded jeans and shirts like Levi's,Burberry,Hugo Boss are sold at lower prices!
For example, Levi's jeans you can get for about RM100 after discount! If no discount, you can get a Levi's jeans at RM130-RM180...cheaper compared in Malaysia, rite? You can also get the original jeans cutting service here for Rp.10,000 (around RM3 only).
I love the interior decorations at Toko Tiga...creative and gives you a fresh greenery feelings with a lovely fish pond and birds...so that your little ones won't feel bored :)
If you are into handbags or purses, you can head to Jalan Riau...there is "Terminal Tas Tangan" with lots of branded bags.
Well, there you go about where and what to shop at Bandung. Next entry, I'll tell you where and what to eat at Bandung....sounds yummy,right!

Things change a lot in 2 years. Just came back from Bandung recently and my shopping experience there is - no difference compared to shopping in KL. The Jln Riau and Jln Dago FOs are really priced much like any Parkson or Metrojaya outlet in KL. In fact, our Malaysian Factory Outlet Store of F.O.S. gives pretty much the same stuff for the same price. Sure, a pair of Burberry jeans cannot possibly cost Rp265,000 (RM75) back here. But, please be realistic - in the first case, a Bandung Burberry is a genuine fake. AND, any decent pair of no-name jeans in KL will cost exactly RM75 also. If you want impossible bargains, you can troll Jalan Cihampelas - which is exactly the pasar malam stuff you find in KL's Jln Chow Kit.
ReplyDeleteBottomline - for KL bargain hunters, please be warned - nothing is cheap anymore in Bandung 2014. Factor in your plane fare, and you will find shopping in KL FAR cheaper!
Thanks for reading my entry, Anonymous.
DeleteReally? Well, to me, there aren't many differences if you want to buy ready made clothes at Bandung. However, I think Pasar Baru Bandung sell very cheap prayer clothing (telekung) and 'kain sulam' where they are sold at much higher price in Malaysia. You can also get a curtain done in few hours at a reasonable price there :)
