Sabah, Land Below the Wind
|
Sabah is a great place to visit if you plan to indulge in nature’s delights. With its majestic mountains, undersea wonders, lush rainforests, colourful people and unique cultures, the state is set to woo and win the hearts of many travellers with its varied landscapes and natural wonders. Sabah’s lush jungles – the oldest rainforest in the world – have provided an ideal playground for nature. The world over, scientists travel to Sabah to study the unique nature of this part of the our planet, and only slowly we begin to realise what treasure nature has given to us.

Eco tourism is Sabah's main forte and it's heavenly beauty made worldwide headlines when it became host to the first Survivor series as well as the fourth installment of The Amazing Race. Sabah was also featured in Sacred Planet, a documentary hosted by Robert Redford. BAT*21, a filmed starred by Gene Hackman and Danny Glover was also shot here.

I visited Sabah a long time ago, and really enjoyed it. I remember climbing the steps up Mt. Kinabalu for about two hours. (Yes, it was all steps!) I wanted to get high enough to see a pitcher plant, and as soon as I did, I turned around. The next day I went to Poring Hot Springs to soak my muscles. Hours of steps were not part of my routine then, or now for that matter.
I also went to Uncle Tan's jungle camp for a couple of nights. There were open huts in the jungle, and great vegetarian food. We were in a female orangutan's territory, and she didn't like having her picture taken. She threw tree branches at us when we raised our cameras!
I also loved the little islands off of Kota Kinabalu.
I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay in Sabah. As you'd probably know, Sabah is truly a precious gem that everyone should visit in his/her lifetime!
