How much time did you spend at Central Market, KL?

We spent about 1 hour and 15 minutes at Central Market, mainly shopping and browsing through the colourful stalls and souvenir shops. It was enough time to explore and shop without feeling rushed. If you plan to sit down for a meal, do the DIY batik painting, visit the art galleries, enjoy a massage, you could easily spend 2 to 3 hours here.
