The Best Markets

Central Market (Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia): This huge bustling market turned me into a shopping freak! All of the handicrafts Terengganu is famous for come concentrated in one exciting experience: batik, songket cloth, brassware, basket weaving -- the list goes on.

Petaling Street (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia): This night market gets very, very crowded and crazy with all who come for watches, handbags, computer software, video CDs (which aren't exactly DVDs but can be played on a DVD player), and all manner of blatant disregard for international copyright laws.
