I think it's the most worthwhile place to go to. To really experience the local customs and understand the history and culture of the indigenous people is the biggest gain that I was very surprised by. On the contrary, I feel that the mangrove trip is totally inferior to this cultural village. You can see the local residents'boys and girls are very beautiful, with natural simplicity on their faces, very warm and lovely. Even the final performance is full of devotion. Tour guides themselves married to the local ethnic group and also talked about the traditions of that ethnic group. They introduced the traditions of killing heads, such as killing a lot of people before marriage to prove their strength; for example, thieves would be killed, and people would hang their heads on the roof, because they thought that people's minds came from the brain to deter intruders; for example, children born two months would be thrown into the child test. Try, those who can swim are considered to be descendants of their own race, and those who can not swim give up. Their husbands belong to this race. Now there is still this tradition, but they will not abandon their children, and so on. Many, many cultures we don't know and know. I strongly recommend going to this cultural village. Compared with the National Park, the mangrove is a bumpy two-hour drive, which is half an hour away. And the mountains are similar to the national parks. Suggestions are preferred. After the end of the coffee and tea and all kinds of fruit snacks enthusiastically entertained, the whole process without any consumption, is not the comment at all. In addition, after the performance, it is suggested to go up and take a bamboo pole dance with the young people. A very, very interesting three-hour cultural tour.

    In the village, you will be introduced to various traditional homes from Sabah’s 5 major ethnic communities—the Bajau, Lundayeh, Murut, Rungus and Dusun. —which are built by descendants of the tribes which they represent.For a more hands-on experience, check out the little huts in the village where daily routines of traditional Sabahan life come alive. Grab the chance to see blowpipe-making demonstration, fire-starting demonstration using bamboo, tattoo-making demonstration, and so on.

    Located in a remote forest setting in Kionsom Inanam, away from the hustling city of Kota Kinabalu - the perfect escape from the urban bustle. I really enjoyed the delicious buffet meal prepared with traditional cooking styles and flavors.
