KUALA LUMPUR – Ramadan bazaars are not confined to Malaysia alone, but are wherever the fasting community is during the holy month.

However, in Malaysia, it is a unique experience given the country’s variety of races, religions, and cultures, which offers a diversity of delectable food.

In fact, patrons at these bazaars have the opportunity to savour food unique to a particular state they have not tried before.

In Malaysia, Ramadan bazaars are everywhere and are regarded as food havens for Malaysians regardless of race and religion.

One can easily spend more than RM50 as they browse the attractive, colourful, and tasty food.
