1 Day

Overview

About Kinabalu National Park : Kinabalu National Park is Malaysia’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site and part of the Kinabalu UNESCO Global Geopark, floristically fantastic with an estimated 5,000-6,000 vascular plant species and identified as a globally important Centre of Plant Endemism. Set at 1,500m above sea level, this 754sq kilometre park features one the Tallest Mountains in all of South East Asia as its centrepiece, Mount Kinabalu—rising at 4.095.2m with cloud-hugging peaks that catch breath, enchant eyes and shading valleys below—certainly a sight to behold from Kinabalu National Park. Also within the park are restaurants amidst lush montane forests, a botanic garden boasting plant species endemic to Mount Kinabalu as well as nature trails varying in length, from 20 minutes to 2-3 hours.

About Rumah Terbalik (Upside Down House) : The first of its kind in South East Asia and among the five upside-down structures in the world (3 are found in Europe and another in Japan). Everything inside the house, from furniture to household appliances, hovers above your head, as the ceiling is actually the floor. Visitors will notice some distinguishing Sabahan décor and features showcased in this house. In the garage, a car is parked upside down. It might seem disorienting in the first few seconds, but the fascination of it all takes over. Included in the Malaysia Book of Records for being the first of its kind in the nation.

About Desa Cow Farm : A popular tourist attraction, the Desa Cow Farm is known as the little New Zealand of Sabah. Offering vast, green pastures where Fresian cows roam free, this 199-hectare stretch produces nearly a million litres of fresh milk annually. Learn the ins and outs of how milk is processed and have yourself fresh milk yoghurt right after! Get up close and add a personal touch to the experience by bottle-feeding calves, an activity families will surely enjoy. With Mount Kinabalu as your backdrop, don’t miss out on a chance to snap some photos while you’re there!
