KK - Last day (Pasar Filipin)

Feeling a bit impulsive in the morning when I took my mum to Pasar Filipin. We were there for about one hour before heading back to the hotel, in time to get ready for our flight back in the afternoon.

Some notes :
Taxi from Pacific Sutera to Pasar is RM10 (vice versa). To get back to the hotel, taxis are available across the Pasar, near the junction of the newly opened Le Meridien Hotel.

If you intend to buy pearls, it's better to have a look first. Then, settle for at least 1 stall so that you can bargain. A good bracelet would be around RM20. A pearl necklace is around RM40 or more depending on the style, length & types of pearls. Pearl studs is RM10. Brooch is more or less the same. I managed to get a rice pearl, white color necklace, slightly longer than the ones I had for only RM40. The last time I bought a necklace, it was pinkish, corn pearls that cost me RM80.

Anyway, do try your bargaining skill. You could land yourself a better deal.
