2. KSL City Mall and Holiday Plaza JB stand out as popular destinations for Singaporean shoppers, each offering a unique shopping experience. Located just a 10-minute ride from the immigration checkpoint, KSL City Mall is a massive megamall that dwarfs its predecessors in size. With an extensive array of merchants, the mall is a haven for those looking to spend an entire day exploring its offerings.

Indulge in shopping at charming knick-knack stores like Yubiso and Daiso, or treat yourself to classic gel mani-pedis (RM50/S$16), doll eyelash extensions (starting from RM68/S$22), or a stylish hair makeover at the renowned Studio M. The Tesco hypermart within the mall caters to your grocery needs, providing a convenient one-stop-shop experience. Conclude your day with a delightful meal at restaurants such as Chez Papa, Giovanni’s NY Style Restaurant, or Gianni’s Trattoria.

On the other hand, Holiday Plaza JB is often considered an older, smaller counterpart to KSL City Mall, offering a similar shopping experience at slightly more affordable prices. Since the closure of the iconic KFC outlet in early 2021, Holiday Plaza JB has seen fewer visitors. It might be worth exploring only if you have some spare time on your hands.

4. Experience the ultimate in upscale shopping at the Tebrau shopping district, a sprawling complex that underwent extensive upgrades and expansion in 2019. Instead of seeking homeware and lifestyle goods in Singapore, consider this locale for your refurbishing needs.

To embark on a furniture-shopping extravaganza, all you require is a car, whether owned or rented. Begin your journey at IKEA Tebrau, a mega outlet that surpasses the sizes of its counterparts in Alexandra, Jurong East, and Tampines.

However, it's essential to note that not every item may be significantly more affordable at this outlet, prompting the need for due diligence in checking prices beforehand.

Upon completing your furniture shopping, unwind at Aeon Tebrau City, conveniently located next door, providing a perfect escape after an intense shopping spree.

Shopping in this district caters to those with a penchant for mid to high-end retailers, offering a premium shopping experience. Additionally, Toppen JB, the newest addition to the shopping compound, officially opened in November 2019. This vibrant mall is adorned with the latest boutique and branded vendors, emanating a youthful and dynamic vibe.

Explore Sports Direct for a workout wardrobe upgrade or enjoy a midday pick-me-up with adorable latte art at Miyakori Coffee. Toppen JB is a lively destination that injects a fresh and invigorating atmosphere into the entire shopping complex.

5. The Mall, Mid Valley Southkey – For high-end, branded shopping
Oh, would you look at that, another new megamall to add to our list.

The name – The Mall Mid Valley Southkey – might be a mouthful, but it’s the largest integrated shopping mall modelled after its counterpart in Kuala Lumpur. Everything about it screams lavishness and opulence, from its sheer scale to the branded goods found here. Walking through it is reminiscent of ION Orchard.

In fact, this commercial district will also serve world-renowned hotel chains and luxurious residences in time to come. They even have a complimentary two-way shuttle bus service from JB customs to the mall (RM1 per way).

Despite being new, many stores are already open, with the three-storey Japanese department store, Sogo, as its key anchor tenant. Other notable retailers here include Naelofar Concept Store, NARS, Clinique, DAISO and even a LEGO certified store.

Address: 1, Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
