Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Shopping center and skyscraper in Bukit Bintang, Malaysia
Pavilion Kuala Lumpur is a shopping centre in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, with eight shopping precincts and a row of street-front boutiques. Its entrance sits on Level 3, so visitors choose to go down two levels or up three. The complex also holds serviced apartments, an office block and a 5-star hotel.
The project was built on the site of the former Bukit Bintang Girls' School, which relocated to Cheras in 2000 before construction began. This conversion displaced the school building but created space for a major shopping destination.
The Tokyo Street section features Japanese dining spots and specialty shops that introduce visitors to contemporary Japanese retail concepts. This area has become a popular gathering place for people seeking authentic Japanese products and food.
Visitors can access the complex through the nearby Bukit Bintang MRT station or the Raja Chulan Monorail station, with a covered walkway connecting to KLCC. Multiple entry points make it convenient to arrive from different parts of the city.
The fountain at the Level 3 main entrance, made by Liuli Gongfang in 2009, stacks three large crystal bowls and is called "Earth Full of Flowers". Its 3.6-metre height and 6-metre width make it a meeting point, and the red hibiscus carved inside the bowls stands for Malaysia's national flower.
