We arrived at the market at about 10.30am and stayed for about two hours, it was hot and crowded, so be prepared to bring water and wear the right clothes, and also bring your bag close to your body. This has the tourist-oriented items you can see in most markets in Malaysia, but there are also items worth buying. Always ask for the best price and you can buy a bargain. There seemed to be lots of puppies and kittens in the cage, they looked hot, crowded and were injected with tranquilizers. If you take your child to the market, I wouldn’t bring a stroller because it’s too busy and there’s not much space between the stalls and the walkway. This is a must-see for a trip to Kota Kinabalu. The market is only open on Sunday morning, and it was originally intended to let farmers near Kota Kinabalu sell their products once a week. But now, due to its speciality, it has become a tourist market. There are more industrial products than agricultural products now compared to 15 years ago. As of May 2019, there is still a lack of Tarap fruit on the market. I was told Tarap fruit will be available in August and it is seasonal. During this visit, Tarap fruit was just anti-season fruit, so it was priced at 60 Gitlin/pc. Hopefully we can see more real sellers (agricultural products, crafts, local cuisine, cultural products) in the market than industrial products.
