Though technically not a mall, Central Market is a living testament to the rich tapestry of Malaysian culture, art, and craftsmanship. Its roots trace back to 1888 when it began as a humble wet market. During the rapid development of the 1970s, the Malaysian Heritage Society successfully petitioned against its deconstruction, and the site was declared as a ‘Heritage Site’.

Over the years, it has gracefully evolved into a treasure trove of local handicrafts, exquisite textiles, charming souvenirs, collectables, and delectable local snacks. The complex also houses eclectic art galleries such as the Illusion 3D Art Museum and Art House Gallery, making it not merely a shopping destination but a living, breathing testament to the dynamic evolution of Malaysia, seamlessly blending tradition with modernity.
