巴东勿刹(Padang Beser)是马泰边界的一座城镇，是两个人民集合之处。这里是许多大马人欲进入泰国购物、做生意及休闲旅游的关口。当然它也是泰国人进入大马的重要关卡。

这里的火车站有很长的月台，一边是马来西亚的区域，另一边则是由泰国所管。除了移民厅的检查站及一些标示外，我们实在很难分辨出国际界线何在越过火车轨道，即是揭罗镇，一个著名的“讨价还价”购物市集。这里出售各类的纺织品、服装、手工艺品、食物、水果及纪念品。

巴东勿剎是是个购物天堂，也是购买免税物品的好所在，里头售卖了各式各样的物品，如丝绸、鞋、衣服、手工艺品、装饰品、食物、纪念品及水果等。

巴东勿刹曾是60年代至80年代马来西亚 一个红极一时的购物天堂，但这个马国北端边界关口，后来沦为走私者乐园。最近玻璃市州政府特别拨出巨款，努力改头换面，大事修饰一番，希望它有机会东山再起
