2 Best Shopping in Indonesia

Alongside Surabaya's oldest mosque, Mesjid Ampel, you'll find narrow streets chock-full of stalls proffering flowers, shawls, perfumes, beads, dates, and more. Women should be sure to dress conservatively when exploring this area.

This is not only largest mall in Surabaya, it's also one of the biggest in all of Southeast Asia, and you'll find Western chain stores here as well as Indonesian brands. It's worth a stop just for the wonderful food options found on the fifth floor, including sushi and dim sum.
