Sabah : The Sabah Museum

This is our first stop on arrival to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah - The Sabah Museum. Located at Old Palace Hill nearby Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Kota Kinabalu.

Entrance ticket to Sabah Museum. Recently I develop the habit to keep & collect the entrance tickets to the places that I had visited.

This is the place for tourists to snap photos - to prove & to show others that ... yeah, I had been to Sabah Museum. Since no photos taking are allowed inside the exhibition hall, so I cincai snapped few photos outside the Museum. Cannot go back empty-handed :P

The antique Carcar car of yester-years.... Summore pink colour with wooden doors. Looks cartoonic :D It must be glamour sitting inside one of these cars during the early years :)

This is Kesapang (or Leguminosae). Supposed to be good for stomachache & fever.

Flags of all the states in Malaysia. Seeing the flags reminds me of our Jalur Gemilang song - Berkibar-berkibar di ruang angkasa, Dirgahayu bendera tercinta...

so huge geh this tree trunk...

I get myself the Sabah & Kota Kinabalu road maps ( for RM16.50? Can't remember the exact price...) from the Museum souveneir shop. I found it useful and essential to invest in proper road maps especially when we are travelling on our own. I'm really glad I bought the map or else we sure couldn't find our way to Kinabalu Park the following day.

  5. sengkor,
    It's definitely a plant, not an animal nor human :P Might be.. this is a weird looking plant?

    butt,
    I saw the explanation for the plant from the nearby flora museum. I dunno whether they eat or drink the plant to get the effect.

    may,
    Kkakaka.. what a brilliant idea.

    What I see is .... lotsa lotsa ants on the plant. But since I resized the picture, u won't notice the ants. Those little black black dots ..
