Wonders of SS15

Wonders of SS15

If you plan to come for a vacation in Malaysia, first do not think of Kuala Lumpur only. There are many places for you to enjoy all around Malaysia. My 1st highlight is actually a place in Subang called SS15, what makes SS15 unique is how the place is a structure for young Malaysians to enjoy things like coffee, taking pictures of foods and drinks.

SS15 is basically a district filled with cafe's, and restaurants or that was what they were well known for until the emergence of boba milk tea in that district. It is because of that emergence more and more boba tea shop have started to gather here to form the 1 ever boba tea district. As of now, there are 20 and more boba tea shops in SS15 alone

But SS15 is not only covered with boba tea stalls as they also contain beautiful restaurants and cafe of multiple cultures, for example, but Malaysia also has multiple cultures such as Malays, Indians, Chinese and many more
