Built adjacent to Ikea, the brightly colored IPC Shopping Center (formerly known as Ikano Power Center) is a familiar sight to those who’ve visited the bustling Mutiara Damansara area before.

At IPC, family always comes first. The complex itself is designed to be easily accessible for all; children, elderly, and disabled alike. There’s even a special kid’s entrance on Level G that’s sized perfectly for little people.

Shopping with babies? Simply head on over to the i-Counter and you can collect a baby stroller that can be used anywhere in IPC. There are also kid friendly toilets and Family Rooms on Levels G and 2 which are fully equipped with baby changing tables, nursing chairs, and washing facilities.

After a fun-filled day, you can head back to your car, secure in the knowledge that the family friendly parking lot is clean and brightly lit. It even has special parking lots designated specifically for families to ensure that your shopping trips is as comfortable and convenient as possible.
