Sabah terrains are mostly mountainous & the land is watered by great rivers.Lots of great bridges were built along state express ways connecting bigger cities/towns such as Kota Kinabalu, Tawau, Sandakan.
Kota Kinabalu is a local craft heaven. The amount of things & local craft that money can buy are just uncountable.Rattan products, chandelier made of seashells, wooden vase, bamboo wind chime, batek, T-shirts that printed with Orang-utan, Mt Kinabalu, Sipadan Island & etc are found abundantly at local centers. You can bargain when you’re shopping for these items.Filipino Market & Local Craft Centre next to Kota Kinabalu Wet Market will be highly recommended.
It's tough to be growing out of competitive environment. This timber seed were evolved overtime & able to glide away from its parent with the better hope of getting more sunlight & good soil in order to grow strong & choke other plants in process.It's all about survival, baby!!
Contrary to what most people believe that Sabah is very much underdeveloped. Even some KL people think so.This picture clearly shows that the infrastructures are all in place & have a wonderful holiday in Sabah.
The jungle at daybreak is a wonderful thing to see, as the animals and birds rouse you can feel and hear the jungle coming alive ..... not that it ever really sleeps, even at night there are still the sounds of the nocturnal creatures This picture was taken at 6am just before the mist started to clear, immediately after taking this picture a hornbill flew low over my head, then as we walked towards the path we saw an orang utan sitting in a fig tree.It was a day I will never forget.......
Off the coast of Kota Kinabalu are some beautiful coral islands, the snorkelling is really good.... there are white beaches.... and shady trees....They are the perfect antidote to the bustle of the city and a perfect way to spend a day Snorkelling all morning, then eating a barbeque lunch under the trees with a cold beer.....A great relaxation day in the middle of a hectic tour
Only about 20% of Maliau Basin Conservation Area has so far been explored, and researchers will carry out botanical, faunal, meteorological, hydrological, geological and soil studies as well as detailed mapping surveys.The project will also address public awareness and environmental education about Maliau Basin Conservation Area, and its potential for ecotourism.
Geographical Features The 588.4 km² (58,840 hectares) Maliau Basin Conservation Area, encompasses the whole of Maliau Basin itself (390 km²), plus an additional 198.4 km² of forested land to the east and north of the rim, including the fabled Lake Linumunsut, formed by a landslide blocking a small tributary of the Pinangah River.While all of this region is rugged, the saucer-shaped Maliau Basin is distinguished by its almost circular perimeter, sharply delimited on all sides by cliffs or very steep slopes up to 1,500m in height, making it insurmountable on foot from most directions. The highest point is thought to be Gunung Lotung on the north rim, which is over 1,600 m in elevation, but has yet to be accurately surveyed. Resembling a volcanic caldera, the 25 km diameter Basin is in fact a sedimentary formation comprised mainly of gently inclined beds of sandstone and mudstone.The Basin...
Next to the orangutan, the proboscis monkey is the must see animal of any excursion to Borneo. The proboscis is so named because of a very generous sized nose. The bigger the nose the more attractive the male becomes to the female. The older and stronger males keep a harem of 10 to 15 females. Therefore, any sighting of the proboscis will either be a lone male with his female entourage or a troop of juvenile males.The prboscis monkeys sleep throughout the day and the only real chance to catch sight of them is either at dawn or dusk. But once you are in their vicinity and they are awake, you cannot miss them. They literally hurl themselves from tree to tree, breaking branches and causing quite a ruckus. And the dominant male will let you know if you are intruding on his turf. He bellows very loudly and very sternly; advising the interloper to stay away from his girls.
