Is payday around the corner? Or are you looking to take a quick break from life this weekend to recuperate? Look no further because we understand your pain, which is why this list is made for those of you who have no idea what to do on days you want to relax and have fun. There’s something for everyone here so you don’t ever feel left out!
Check out some of the activities you can do to unwind:
1. Dive into nature without going too far from the city with Sekeping Retreats
Their most popular stay is undoubtedly Sekeping Serendah. With lush greeneries and an open shower concept, who wouldn’t feel refreshed after spending a few good days away from people in a beautiful glass house? The great thing about Sekeping Retreats is that there’s a branch in almost every major city area so you can always escape the bustle of it all without travelling too far. Just make sure you bring insect repellent and keep all tech items aside to fully enjoy what Sekeping Retreats has to offer.
2. Stop by 176 Avenue at Jalan Maarof, Bangsar for a total beautification session
It goes without saying that when you look good on the outside, you’ll automatically feel great on the inside. It’s totally up to you if you want to get a mani-pedi and hair treatment all at once (cause you totally can over here), but what we like about this one-stop beauty center is how there’s something for every beauty-conscious girl. Whether it’s lash extensions or a new hairdo, you have it here.
3. Kill time at Chiling Waterfalls for a simple picnic and a bit of adventure
If you’re someone who prefers to get out there and explore, why not trek along the river and enjoy the jungle surrounding you before you reach the beautiful waterfalls of Chiling? Over there you can breath fresh air while spending time with your loved ones over a nice dip in the cold waters. If you’re a romantic, feel free to bring out your mat and refreshments. Trust us, this is actually a pretty cool date idea!
4. Dress up with your besties and head to Chinatown’s PS150 for some cocktails
Aside from the amazing aesthetics of this bar, you’ll also get an array of tailored cocktails. It’s pretty hard to dislike this place once you get a taste of what they have from a cocktail menu that is divided into five different eras that is represented via key cocktails, with distinct flavours that belong authentically to only PS150. There’s really nothing like this place and you’d have to witness yourself to know what we’re talking about.
5. Treat your taste buds to original ice cream flavours like no other at Inside Scoop
It’s a known fact that this is the place to go for ice cream that’s distinctly yummy. Have it in a cup, cone, or with fluffy waffles to suit your taste and you’d never have to worry about the price, it’s affordable for the everyday folk from students to the working adult. Drop by the nearest branch for your dose of cold dessert as a break from our tropical climate.
6. Skip the cinema and enjoy a live performance at The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Center (KLPAC) or Petaling Jaya Live Arts (PJLA)
You have to experience the artistry and talent of our homegrown artists at least once in your life. KLPAC is where it’s at when it comes to quality concerts or theater plays. If you’re a fan of comedy or any smaller independent shows then PJLA is the place to go. If you ever find yourself feeling inspired, feel free to register yourself to KLPAC’s workshops to learn the art of acting, singing, and dancing.
