Uncover the different faces of Sabah by visiting one of the most interesting “Tamu” in Sabah, set in Kota Belud, home to the “Cowboys of the East”. A weekly event, the Kota Belud “Tamu” is a colourful melting pot of hawkers, vendors, farmers, fishermen and cattle breeders alike. You may even glimpse Bajau horsemen in their splendid finery and traditional sword making. Then head north, past vast oil palm and coconut plantations, for a stopover at Gombizou and Sumangkap villages and observe going-making and honey bee farming. Next, visit the longhouse at Bavanggazo village where the Rungus people reside. One of Sabah’s many indigenous tribes, the Rungus are mostly farmers and gifted artisans who excel in woven basketry and intricate beadwork. Do not miss the adventure of seeing the most northerly wild tip of Borneo.
Note:
