Stepping through the inviting Moorish arch, you are instantly transported to a world spun by the cacophony of a Moroccan souk.
Towering above are the upper rooms, adorned with intricate Moorish designs that cast a kaleidoscope of coloured shadows all around.
You look to your feet as a respite from the stimulation of beauty, and the carpet underneath makes you feel like you are a vagabond traversing the desert.
You look up again, and every corner seems to promise hidden treasures, every stall an invitation to delve deeper into this intoxicating world.
You lose yourself for a few seconds, but you blink once—no, twice—only to realise you are in Sunway Pyramid.
Yes, get ready to be transported to Morocco’s marketplace this Ramadan and all throughout Syawal when you shop at Sunway Pyramid.
But first, a checklist of what you need before you head over:
- A cute outfit
- A camera (or a mobile phone that captures good pictures)
- Money (cash, digital or credit—anything goes)
- Your family and friends
- A sense of wonder
Insta-Raya Beb!
From the description above (for good measure, close your eyes and imagine it again), you know taking pictures from any angle at the LG2 Orange Concourse is going to be great.
If you look closely, in the midst of the bustle of stalls selling your favourite Raya goodies and dates, as well as accessories and clothing, you will see how Malaysian culture is adopted in the market and spot beautiful motifs and architecture woven into the design.
Once you are done posing and snapping pictures with your family fronting the facade around the area, take a breather to complete your photo or reel edits to be posted on social media.
Sapot Lokal
If you didn’t already know, that is the colloquial ‘Malaysian spelling’ for support local—and in this case, support your local artist.
We want to give a shoutout to artist Nas Suha, a full-time mural and doodle artist from Terengganu.
You might have seen his mural creations around town, but this time, you can take his design home!
Apart from working with Sunway Pyramid on parts of the decor for this Raya celebration—like the Hibiscus-shaped mosaic—he also designed the mall’s Raya packet.

Syok Activities
To add to the fun, Sunway Pyramid has also planned exciting activities for your whole family.
LUSH Bath Bomb Making Workshop is lined up for your family’s enjoyment on 30 March at 3:00 p.m.*
Another activity that your family must not miss is the Mosaic Coaster Making Workshop!
As you already know (if you didn’t, then all the more reason for you to visit Sunway Pyramid this season), Moroccan architecture is renowned for its intricate mosaic designs, known as Zellij.
These stunning patterns, featuring vibrant colours and complex geometry, are crafted from hand-cut, glazed clay tiles.
Of course, the process will be simplified so you can bring home your precious handmade mosaic coaster.
The workshops run on Sundays, on 17, 24 and 31 March at 3:00 p.m.
