Mayang Hyperstore : Exploring Penang Bukit Mertajam’s Abandoned Mall

Mayang Hyperstore, also known as City Parade, was once a bustling shopping destination in Bukit Mertajam, Penang. Originally named Pasaraya Loowin, it underwent several rebrandings before settling on its final name. During its peak, the hyperstore was a popular retail hub, attracting shoppers with its variety of stores and vibrant atmosphere. However, over time, the mall faced challenges that led to its decline. Reports suggest that financial difficulties, poor management, and competition from newer shopping centers contributed to its downfall. Despite efforts to revive the space, Mayang Hyperstore eventually shut its doors, leaving behind an eerie, abandoned structure that has since become a point of curiosity for urban explorers and locals alike. Today, the building stands as a haunting reminder of its former glory. The abandoned mall has gained attention for its mysterious and unsettling atmosphere, with some visitors sharing stories of ghostly encounters and unexplained occurrences. The site has even been featured in various social media posts and videos, highlighting its eerie beauty and the urban legends surrounding it. While there have been discussions about repurposing the space, no concrete plans have been made to restore or redevelop the property. For now, Mayang Hyperstore remains a silent witness to the passage of time, a forgotten relic of Penang’s retail history. 00:00 - The Rise, Fall, and Forgotten Legacy 00:47 - The Birth 02:20 - Struggle from the Start 03:16 - The Slow Decline 03:53 - Final Days & Closure 05:58 - My Thoughts #abandonedplaces #urbanexplorations #deadmall #penang #haunted Free Music for Videos 👉 Music by Tim Schaufert - Sublime (feat.
