The Philippine Market, once also known as the "Kota Kinabalu Handicraft Centre," is located in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. It is a place that sells handicrafts from the Philippines, Malaysia, and other Asian countries, and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Sabah for international visitors.

At the Philippine Market, you can buy traditional handicrafts from the Philippines and other Asian countries. The place is bustling every day with a constant flow of people, most of whom are foreign tourists hoping to purchase some handicrafts as souvenirs. The market offers a wide variety of items such as textiles, pearl jewelry, shell crafts, jewelry, bamboo products, and more, which are dazzling to the eye. Bargaining is a must here, allowing you to get beautifully crafted and affordable goods. The Philippine Market is a shopper’s paradise, divided into three main sections: handicrafts and souvenirs, cured seafood, and fresh fruits and food. The handicrafts and souvenirs include Sleeping Beauty masks, intricately made local musical instruments, Filipino bags, chandeliers, and more—items that are truly hard to resist.

When night falls, the Philippine Market transforms into a vibrant night market with numerous barbecue stalls where visitors can grill the freshest and most delicious seafood.
