Kota Kinabalu is the charming capital city of Sabah which is part of East Malaysia. Distinct from Peninsular Malaysia which houses the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, East Malaysia has a completely different feel to it, and many people come here to take in a more rural side of the country, with lush jungles and towering peaks aplenty.

The main jewel in Sabah is Mount Kinabalu which stands just outside the capital city, and this is one of the main themes of a trip to Kota Kinabalu, as many of its main attractions lie out in the countryside.

If you are just in town as part of a flying visit however, then you definitely won’t be disappointed in Kota Kinabalu, as there is a huge amount to do in the city itself. Some of the highlights here include the craft markets and delicious seafood restaurants, as well as pretty lookout spots and museums. In short, whether you want to stay in the city center or explore further afield, there is plenty to keep you occupied whatever your itinerary.
