History

Pavilion Kuala Lumpur was built on the former site of Bukit Bintang Girls' School, the oldest school in Kuala Lumpur, which was moved to Cheras as Sekolah Seri Bintang Utara in 2000. Opened on 20 September 2007, the development consists of a premier shopping centre, two blocks of serviced apartments, an office block and a 5-star hotel. [1] The mall had also went through an extension in 2016 called Pavilion Elite, followed by a new residential block which was developed on top of it.
