Sabah Trip @ Information and details thru Internet applications- Trip Advisor



 









































Kota Kinabalu is named after Mount Kinabalu, which is situated about 50 kilometres east-northeast of the city. Kinabalu is derived from the name Aki Nabalu meaning the "revered place of the dead." Aki means "ancestors" or "grandfather", and Nabalu is a name for the mountain in the Dusun language.





Filipino Market @ Kota Kinabalu
There are few tourist attractions along the waterfront at Kota kinabalu city. One of my favourite markets is the Filipino Market.





Kionsom Fall,located at Inanam, is the nearest waterfall to Kota Kinabalu City, about 25 kms or a 30-40 minutes drive from the town. The waterfall is famous among the locals and can be crowded especially during weekends & holidays. When you come from Kota Kinabalu city, just follow the directions to Inanam. In Inanam you take right at the roundabout to Jalan Kionsom. At the end of this road, just after the Mari Mari cultural village, you will find the waterfall park.

Poring Hot Spring (PHS)

  • -Location: 40km away slightly northeast of Park HQ

  • 40 meters high bridge “canopy-walk”

Gayang Seafood Restaurant - The best place to enjoy the bounty of the sea is by the sea.
Tuaran Seafood Restaurants,its only 28KM from kota kinabalu.It is a perfect place to enjoy all kinds of delightful marine cuisine in sabah,Malaysia.





A place for up to 12.000 worshippers
The second main mosque in the city is the Kota Kinabalu City Mosque at Likas Bay at the north coastal highway. It is another impressive example of a marvelous architecture, it  resembles in some ways the design of the Masjid al-Nabawi mosque (The Prophet´s Mosque) in Medina, in Saudi Arabia. The City Mosque is built on a man-made lagoon, which creates a feeling that the mosque is floating above the water.

The prayer room can accommodate up to 12.000 worshippers at one time and houses also three madrasah (religious schools). The City Mosque was officially opened on 2nd of February 2000, following a proclamation of Kota Kinabalu as city status.



 A new era will unfold with the development of Jesselton Quay at Kota Kinabalu Port. Jesselton Quay is poised to be the new landmark of the state where one can dine, shop, and enjoy entertaiment by-the-sea. Kota Kinabalu Port is one of Sabah’s earliest and main ports. It used to handle a variety of cargo. But today, Sapangar Port has taken over the major port role, and thus Kota Kinabalu Port only handles non-containerized cargo such as general cargo and dry bulk.
