Mydin's Wholesale Emporium
Mydin's Wholesale Emporium is part of a nationwide chain that sells everything from toothpaste to watches and DVDs at rock-bottom, no-need-to-bargain prices. Penang is a fun place to shop with plenty of outlets for local crafts and antiques, as well as cameras and electronics at competitive prices (although Kuala Lumpur has a wider range). Bargaining is usually required, except in department stores like this. Jln Penang is the best shopping street in Georgetown.

In a separate building you’ll find the Gardens Mall, a more luxe environment embracing designer international brands as well as a hotel and serviced apartments. On level 2, check out local designers at 2201 Fashion Avenue and KN Key Ng (www.keyng.com.my).
