Low Yat Plaza (Simplified/Traditional Chinese: 刘蝶广场 / 劉碟廣物 Pinyin: liú díe guāng wǔ), or commonly referred to as LYP, is an established commercial shopping centre specializing in electronics and IT products in Malaysia. As an IT related product shopping centre, Low Yat Plaza is the most well known and most established among competitors.

Located at Lot 7, Jalan 1/77, Off Jalan Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, LYP is opposite to Berjaya Times Square and is in walking distance from Pudu Raya Bus Terminal. Low Yat is also accessible via monorail at Imbi or Bukit Bintang Monorail Station.

Low Yat Plaza stands out by offering a greater range and variety of a single product by having a collective of inter-chained stores. This is in contrast with streamlined arrangements in other electronics malls. Therefore, Low Yat Plaza allows the consumer to have greater buying power and freedom in selecting the products or electronic parts they wish to purchase. Most parts that are sold here are bargainable and many stores also offer their services to assemble the parts a customer purchases.

Each floor within the complex has its own speciality specialising in laptops, mobile phones, etc. There are eateries in the lower ground floor of the complex with ATM machines as well.

In November 2006 the police raided Low Yat Plaza and Imbi Plaza, confiscating more than 27,000 copies of pirated computer software. At this moment, no pirated software can be found at both plazas.^{[citation needed]}
