Gurney Plaza, Penang

Gurney Plaza on Penang's waterfront is the island's premier upscale mall, housing the best selection of international and premium Malaysian fashion brands with a 15% higher luxury brand density than the average regional mall. Its six-screen cinema and ground-floor food court offer a climate-controlled alternative to the famous hawker centre 50 metres away on the seafront promenade, attracting 5 million shoppers annually—20% more than the typical Penang mall, yet still 3 million fewer than Sunway Velocity.
