Just barely a week after Pavilion KL was opened, The Gardens Shopping Gallery at Mid Valley opens its door to the public on September 26, 2007. Just like Pavilion KL, The Gardens is not even fully completed with most of its shops still under renovation.

As mention in the previous post about The Gardens, most of its shops are similar to what Pavilion has. The only exception are the anchor tenants - The Gardens has Robinsons and Isetans and a Roof Garden restaurant! Others include The Big Apple (donut shop), Marketplace by Cold Storage and many local designer brands such as Key Ng, Villiam Ooi, Donna C and more.

One ironic observation is that there is a shop that coincidentally named “Pavilion” inside The Gardens Shopping Gallery. Pure coincident or a smart marketing gimnick?

Do Kuala Lumpur need another shopping mall? The answer is yes.

Opening its doors on September 26, 2007, The Gardens Shopping Gallery is a five-star development that boasts a five-storey building that will house over 200 specialty shops and a Roof Garden that will be one of the most exciting dining destinations in KL.

Located just opposite Mid Valley Megamall, The Gardens is easily accessible from Petaling Jaya, Bangsar, Mont Kiara and Damansara Heights. Fret not, there are more than 10,000 parking space available underneath The Gardens!
