Thank you for visitting & exploring our biggest & loved shopping mall!! This has been my 2nd home since its near my house 😅 i can even be a tour guide there haha.
You look great. Well done. Thanks for sharing the Shopping Mall. Seems to be a new feature now with International Airports so far away from City Centres.
Wow. What a wonderful mall in Putrajaya. I've never been to this mall. Hope that you have had a good time exploring the mall. People can get lost getting around this huge place.
No I’ve not been properly. I did make a little D tour on the bus and the city looks next level 🤩 next time in KL I’d definitely go and explore more of Putrajaya 😍
@@Chai_Travel No worries. You can visit Putrajaya the next time you are in Malaysia. I've only been to Putrajaya twice. There are quite a number of attractions, but you need your own transportation for ease of movement. 😀
Thank you friend CHai for the new tour of the Mall. Nothing better on a rainy day than strolling through shops in a Mall, visiting museums or a good movie in a good cinema like the one you share with us with food and drinks included. Amazing 👍
I was there to check the place out when it first open, and it wasn't that big back then. Now based on your vlog, the mall is humongous! Thanks for updating and sharing though. You're a champ indeed. Keep this long video format going man, it's the current trend amongst popular vloggers. We shall catch up for an ice cold beers sometime soon champ!😂😊✌️
Too right Chai. The place is massive. Try finding the store you are looking for. A directory certainly is an essential thing to have there. Well done mate. 🤩
Haha yes! Haha the staff from the shop where also very useful as everyone pretty much new every place I asked for :) thanks Steven. Have a beautiful night 🌗
Size doesn’t always matter! Location, ease of transportation, in mall navigation and holistic shopping brands are the most critical success factor! Sometimes too large a mall goes against those who just want to enjoy a good shopping and dining experience without the hustle of asking for shops location and walking almost mile from 1 shop to another. People might visit this mall once but not frequently. For shopping malls, you need to have high frequency of repeated visits. We do enjoyed KL Mid Valley and The Pavilion which are good enough. Sometimes visiting One U is also good enough.
If you need to compare Icon Siam it would be TRX and Pavillion. But IMHO each mall would have their own characteristics and caters to a different segment all together.
I Still Remember The Time I Got Lost For The First Time With My Friend In IOI Mall Just To Find The Exact Way Out To Our Parking Lot. As you said this mall is super huge, must always remember your way in and out. 😂
So it has over-thrown the Mall of Asia in Philippine now? Impressed. Actually I can say KL is the city of shopping malls, so many malls and the only favourite activity here in weekend is mall strolling xD I also impressed by AEON mall 3rd in lower Phnom Penh in Cambodia.
@@Chai_TravelI just went to Aeon 3 Mall today lol 😂. I go to Chip Mong mega Mall and Aeon 3 two-three times per week. In my honest opinion though, Chip Mong mega Mall is more luxurious and modern than Aeon 3.
Personally, I like to shop at nearby malls where items are easily found and readily available, rather than large malls. Therefore, a smaller mall is preferable. Nonetheless, Malaysia and other Southeast Asian countries have a penchant for developing massive malls since they serve as both shopping destinations and a haven from the heat for locals. Aside from stores, malls offer everything you might possibly need, including dining options, entertainment parks, bowling alleys, and movie theatres. It appears that Putrajaya has just implemented Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART), which is presently in trial and only covers a small area. When it's completely functional, it might also cover IOI Mall.
Aww sadly you miss certain areas tho, there is also huge sport complex badminton courts etc at upper floors and convention center, also farm zoo, district 21, ice skating area etc. But yea its massive, been going for a decade and i still find some spots i had never been at times lol.
@amirism91 people thought thailand and philippines have the largest mall. We are not even competing with them. We are competing with Iran, China, Kuwait.
Wow! That's huge!! I saw the whole thing, not skipping any parts here 😂 ( maybe skipping if I rewatch it) And not drinking beer here, but hubby does! And it's just because I don't like the taste 😂🍻 Hope you had a awesome time! And still do ❤️ You get the same itch in the feet like us, I recon 😂 Love it! Makes good videos for us to watch that way! And alot of ideas for our own journey! So Thanx agaaain ❤️ as always 🎉
Hi hi! Haha Hubby would enjoy an ice-cold tiger ;p Good to know you didn't skip but if you do in the future no offense :) Thanks so much for watching again 🤗
I never know that mall is largest mall in south east asia. I just go there few month ago just trying to find ice skating place. And almost die while getting there from basement where I park my bike. Quite mad ass tired. And today, I just know that building is the largest mall in Malaysia. No wonder..
the character, the IOI Mall may not have the character you hope for. you've seen better but it 's okay. keep having fun vlogging bro.. as someone who cannot travel anymore becoz of me knee, love the content as always!

Hi. Where in kl did you catch the bus & what route number? Mall quite far from city center and if not mistaken not near an mrt station. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thks for the tour 😍👍👍
Thanks mate! No Mrt at the moment but easy reachable by bus (avoid rush hour starting from 4:30) here your route on google maps :) maps.app.goo.gl/ye37MN61oVWqiAEB6?g_st=ic
i dont see the relevance of having such a large shopping mall as most of the outlets are the same brands which are available in most of the shopping mall in klang valley...it just a waste of money and resources of having such a large shopping mall in Putrajaya as the population in the city is relatively small compared to kuala lumpur and selangor.. i think having a unique shopping mall with some tourist attraction could serve as a better destination for leisure activity in Putrajaya..the town needs better tourist attraction such as those wonderful attraction in dubai
😂 omg pls keep this mall under the wraps. This place not well-known within the tourist. But its is where locals enjoy for entertainment especially on weekend.
@@keangwooichoo6138 I don't think so. Lalaport is 2-3 minutes away from Imbi MRT station. The nearest MRT station from IOI City Mall is Putra Permai MRT station and it needs a 10 mins car ride to the mall because there's no walkway and the distance is over 5km. Putrajaya needs its own circle line to connect the Putrajaya line with Kajang line, KTM Seremban line and KLIA transit. Only then it will be accessible without personal vehicle
@@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko Bus terminal & MRT station besides the mall, a must to pack the mall. Need to cater for both local and tourists. These should be planned beforehand. A nice & beautiful mall. 🌱

Yes, can be frustrating indeed, but the scary part is not remembering where you parked your car and getting security to help locate your "lost" car..
It is so huge by leasable area probably 3rd after iran and Kuwait.
It feels illegal to be this early haha. Enjoy keeping up with your amazing adventures Chai.
Haha thanks mate
This mall is very luxurious
Not really. Pavillion is the best
