Kinabalu Park HQ-Botanical Garden

Kinabalu Park Headquarters is 2 hour drive or 88 kilometers away from city of Kota Kinabalu. Permandangan yang sungguh indah sepanjang perjalanan kesini menjadikan 88 kilometers tu tak terasa lansung. I enjoyed the view very much. Tak sabar nak melihat sendiri flora dan fauna yang terdapat di sini.

Mount Kinabalu water fall.

Majestic view of Gunung Kinabalu, the highest mountain between the New Guinea and Himalaya at the park enterance.

 
The air is just so fresh here!

Feeling excited.. Yes!! and we are ready for a walk along the nature trails.

Half heart shape plant

There were so many plant species with scientific names that i forgot most of them ..hahaha sorry guys. Tak dapat nak stored semuanya dalam memory ku. Terdapat sesetangah tumbuhan yang hanya terdapat di sini and you won’t find anywhere else. Kinabalu Park has probably one of the richest flora collections in the world.

There are also a lot of orchids here.. Slipper' orchid and the other two, i forget their name hehe.

The entrance fee to the park are RM 4 per person for mycard , RM5 for tourist and last entry at 3.40 PM.  Glad that i came here dan berkesempatan melihat sendiri the plants that i' have never seen  before.  Now, off to our next destination.  Poring Hot Spring, here we come.

NABALU TOWN - Sabah

Located bout 15 minutes or 12 KM before the Kinabalu Park Headquarters.  This small town is a must stop for tourist and It  is as well one of the best spots to see Mount Kinabalu and its adjacent landscape.

There are so many beautiful and colorful items selling here and i can't resist buying them.

Local handcraft and foods prices are cheaper here than the city.  Haa apa lagi, don't be shy to ask for discount and try your bargain skill lah!.

So in love with the view.

 

Kinabalu mount is covered with mist most of the time and you are lucky if you can get clear view of it..

Yayy! lucky me
