MAGNIFICENT elephant sculptures surrounded by a kolam created with flowers are captivating visitors to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur in Bukit Bintang this Deepavali.
This majestic theme was chosen as the Hindus believe elephants are symbols of peace, mental strength and power.
The decor and multitude of festive treats aim to bring cheer to shoppers.
They can tuck into North Indian delicacies at Royal India and visit The Coffee Academïcs for coffee and dessert.
Get ready to look and feel wonderful with refreshing Deepavali-themed body and shower products from LUSH and scents from Amouage, while Swarovski will bring the bling with gold-toned crystals.
Those who spend RM150, or RM100 with Maybank cards, will receive free Deepavali money packets.
For every RM500 spent, the shopper will be gifted a Vatiri teacup while for every RM2,000 spent, a Pyrex Country Rose carafe and mugs will be given.
This reward will be valid for any purchase at retail stores and F&B outlets from now until Oct 30.
Meanwhile, Pavilion Bukit Jalil is holding its first Deepavali celebration since it opened its doors in December last year.
A giant peacock and 3D-inspired kolam add colour to different corners of the mall.
The stunning displays were created over two days by some 100 students from Inti Centre of Art and Design with guidance from kolam master Ruben Prakas.
The mall has launched its “Deepavali Harmoni” programme filled with exciting festivities.
The launch was attended by Pavilion Bukit Jalil’s management, community leaders, tourist guides, mall tenants and over 80 pupils of SJK (T) Ladang Bukit Jalil.
Mall marketing director Kung Suan Ai said, “We intend to engage the community, including students during the festive season.
“We really want to bring people together.”
Pavilion Bukit Jalil will be hosting performances by the classical Indian dance group Jewels of Sadir, a Diwali fashion show by MOVEkids and a Deepavali dance show featuring a group of 500 people.
