East Coast Mall Kuantan

Cool Place to Shop

Where's the coolest place to hang about in Kuantan?

Well, the East Coast Mall Kuantan is the newest shopping center, or as the young people here describe it, it's "the latest happening in town".

Getting there is by way of Jalan Bukit Sekilau, and it is easily visible from the main road as it is part of the development of Putra Square, an innovative commercial and travel square with Malaysian culture as its theme.

PUTRA SQUARE(MSC Kuantan)

This is a huge business and tourism project being developed in the heart of Kuantan.

In fact the old Transit Quarters of Bukit Sekilau were demolished to make way for this project.

Putra Square's "Cultural Street", comprising of business and tourism projects separately and aptly-named Malay Town, Chinese Town, Indian Town and Construction Town, with a modern ICT hub, is expected to attract tourists with its cultural-architectural multi-racial concept.

Opposite the completed East Coast Mall Kuantan, is a huge complex that includes a 23-storey 5-star hotel (the Zenith Hotel), an International Convention Center, and a multi - purpose Office Tower to be equipped with high-tech facilities.

With the presence of an integrated ICT hub complex complete with retail and commercial, tourism and cultural oriented businesses, this mega project in Kuantan has the potential to be a popular landmark and tourist attraction in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

East Coast Mall Kuantan (or "ECM" as referred to by the local Kuantan residents) is a five - storey high modern retail and commercial complex.

Like the other popular shopping centers, the East Coast Mall Kuantan, attracts popular and famous branded retail sellers and international concept stores with their extensive range of merchandise.

Popular local and international brands for watches, shoes, accessories, jewelleries, beauty salons, boutiques, and others, have their outlet or branch set up in here.

Food and beverage outlets found here include Starbucks, Baskin Robbins, KFC, Sushi King, Laksa Shack, and other alfresco lifestyle favourite local restaurants and eateries.

The retail shops in this complex occupy from the Ground Floor upwards to Level 3, the levels being connected by travallators and lifts.

The anchor tenants of the complex, namely, Parkson (Ground-floor to Level 2) and Carrefour (at Level 1 and 2) respectively occupy the left and right wings of the building.

At level 3 a cineplex and food-court and entertainment area were being planned for construction.

Amenities available at this East Coast Mall Kuantan include automated teller machines (ATMs) and banks, money changers, rest-rooms and baby rooms, and for the Muslim visitors, surau (or mussolah) located at level 1 and 2.

Parking facilities are very adequate with big outdoor, sub-basement, level 3 and roof-top parking areas.

Take a Leisurely Stroll

So if you are in Kuantan, don’t forget to visit this latest shopping center.

Take a look, and go round the retail shops.

Perhaps you’ll find that nice, new Seiko or Gucci watch for a present to a loved one, or the comfortable, reasonably-priced jogging shoes or sandals that you’ve desired for that walk on the beaches in Kuantan.

Or you might want to idle your time away with scoops of nice concoction of mixed flavored ice-cream, or maybe just sip a cup of cappuccino, while watching people go by.

Well, Baskin-Robbins, or Starbucks, anyone?

As always, from me...
