Day 4 (Part 1) : Kinabalu Park
Kinabalu Park (Taman Kinabalu) is one of the first national park in Malaysia, and it is the first world heritage site in Malaysia designated by UNESCO in December 2000. This park is established in 1964, having more than 4500 species of flora and fauna, including 326 birds and around 100 mammal species. It is located on the west coast of Sabah, covers 754 square km surrounding Mount Kinabalu - highest mountain in Borneo. ~~ information from Wikipedia.
We did not plan to climb Mount Kinabalu or walk the trails in the park. So we just went for an hour of sightseeing. It is still nice as the temperature at the park is quite chilly.
Kinabalu Park. Turn in when you see this.
Enjoy the greens. =)

At the observatory site, where you can look at Mount Kinabalu, from far, if you're lucky.
Climbathon record. Hmmm... Maybe I should put it in my checklist.
Yes. This is where you can walk up the stairs and look at Mt Kinabalu. On the left.
Squirrels are everywhere at the observatory. Plenty of them. Scary to me, but cute. =D
During our visit, there's fog that cover up the mountain. We couldn't observe the mountain. Sad. ='(
And so we left the park and went to our hotel to check-in.
