Christmas is just less than a month away and Malaysians are not missing out on this especially the shopping malls and stalls. Decorations are slowing popping up in pieces while others are in full bloom and ready for the celebration.
The following are photos from a shopping where they are getting ready from Christmas. Not sure what they making but in a few days time we will know
Top view from 2nd floor….. Mmmm looks like a map
Colourful and beautiful view from the top. Hot air balloons??
Ground level view…..
Lots of wooden rocking horses.
Another few shots of the hot air balloons and dressed up wooden rocking horses from ground level.
So.. If you want to find see the complete decorations, then stick with me here and you will find out. 😊

Christmas is in the air (*corner actually, kekekeke)…love this.
yup…. =)
Is Christmas a big thing in Malaysia? I thought it was a mostly Muslim country.
Malaysia is a multi-racial country. In Malaysia, we all celebrate Chinese New Year, Deepavali and also Hari Raya Puasa and also not forgetting Christmas. All these days are holidays. In fact, Xmas in Malaysia is not as big as the other festive seasons but still you can feel the Xmas mood and hear Xmas songs been played in the shopping malls.
Every day is a holiday!
LOL!!! Yup… lots of holidays. Another big one coming in January; Chinese New Year (aside from the New Year on 1st Jan)
Lovely! I would want to leave those up all year!
Thanks!! Well.. in Malaysia… we have lots of other beautiful festivals aside from Xmas. =)
I love the colours! In Korea I find myself going to Starbucks to get a Christmas time feel. The decorations and music remind me of home. I like the beautiful decorations in these pictures. I haven’t seen anything like that around.
Thanks!! Well.. this year’s decoration is ok. Some are even nicer which I saw last year. Guess that’s one way to get more customers to visit the mall. =)
Goodness you guys go all out for Christmas..it must be colours, songs, food, 😀
Merry Christmas in Malaysia. I’ve done all my Christmas shopping. Finished yesterday before the big snowstorm hits us in 24 hrs. (Seriously, it will happen and drop to -20 degrees C by end of this week.)
How do you/your family celebrate Christmas …if at all?
Thanks!! The only feeling of Xmas that we do not have in Malaysia is the snow. LOL!! We only have hot (now is about 28C), humid and wet weather here. =)
Over here Xmas is celebrated in a medium scale unlike in western countries. Usually families will go out to restaurant to have dinner on the eve of Xmas and stay up till midnight to open the gifts. In Malaysia the bigger celebration will be during the Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Puasa and Deepavali as this is considered like Thanksgiving in US.
Thanks for your response. I learned something. Meanwhile right now, outside this dark evening, a winter snow blizzard is whipping around and temperatures have dropped to -20 degrees C with winds up to 60 km./hr. I took some photos and my fingers hurt from cold afterwards when I removed my glove for only 3 min.!
A contrast to your palm trees, I’m sure!
Canada celebrates Thanksgiving in early Oct., over 1 month earlier than the U.S. which suits our still lovely flaming autumn tree colours and just harvested veggies and fruits.
Well… in Malaysia, it is now the rainy season. Not much sun as it has been gloomy for the last few days. At least it is better than the scourging sun (around 30C). I dun mind to swapping places with you for a month or so for the cold weather as I have not felt that before. =)
You would be in shock. Have you stayed in a place long enough to experience lots of snow?
Well.. I have never. Guess that’s why I keen to find out… at least once. =)
Today, it has been -40 degrees C with wind chill. It is danger zone. I noticed a lot less people walking downtown.
Check out the rabbit in our neighbourhood in my latest blog post. The poor thing didn’t run away from me, when I crept closer to take a photo: it was trying to stay warm! See how its ears are pulled far back.
Wow!!! That’s cold. I have never been to a place that cold. The closest I have been is 0C with the wind blowing. brrr……
That’s balmy for cycling ..to me. One gets that type of temperatures in winter in Vancouver BC. But then, they get a lot of rain, instead of snow.
I thought something was wrong with my eyes as you caption the first few pics as view from the top, and then i realized its a map…lol
HAHA!! yup… it is a map that they stuck on the floor. When you see it from the upper floor, you can see it more clearer. kinda cute right?
ahhhh, i see!
i thought its when you look from the upper floor, the scatter decoration will all be one beautiful pic, thats why i thought got my eyes crossed xxx. lol. Happy Holidays to you!
haha.. well it really got people’s attention. Happy holidays to you too!! =)
Interesting! I think I will actually be in in Malaysia for Christmas 🙂
That’s good. You will enjoy yourself. If you stay a little longer till end of Jan, you will also enjoy the Chinese New Year celebration in Malaysia. =)
