TRIP TO LABUAN

Welcome To Menumbok Jetty Terminal

Saturday,24th April 2010-It was a lovely day that I can spend my time at Labuan once again after 4 years didn't come visit this island after my matriculation's life..One can go to Labuan from Kota Kinabalu via 3 ways which are by ferry(from Jesselton Point Terminal,Kota Kinabalu), by speed boat at Menumbok terminal(need to about 2 n half hour along the road from Kota Kinabalu to Menumbok) and by flight. Me and my boyfriend decided to go by speed boat at Menumbok terminal. We parked our car near the terminal,actually the parking site is the compound of the people who build their house just next to the teminal. They charge RM10.00 per night parking. The parking site is quite OK coz they provide you with garage, but the garage is so limited. If you park outside of the garage, one just need to pay for RM5.00 but the parking site is without roof and seems like not safe enough for your car..hehe..

We were charged Rm20.00 for the speed boat that we took from this terminal coz the time we arrived the jetty is around 4pm-5pm already. So the man at the jetty charged us for an extra RM5.00 (The normal fee is just RM15.00 if u depart not late than this time or maybe need arrive at least 3pm at the jetty so u got normal fee for speed boat. So don't malas2...if got a plan to play around then completely settle down all the thing needed for travel a day before your it..hehe..=)

This is the coal point called The Chimney..It is located at Tanjung Kubung and the coal mining was during the 19th century. Many died in a cave-in and the mine operation have to be closed ever since.

Ban San Miao Chinese Temple..This temple is quite big and so pretty..When you enter this temple, you will find a black curtain entrance that was so weird..actually we were very curios and want to know what is the thing inside..me and my friend not dare to enter the black curtain entrance coz there were no guide that bring us in and there were no people inside the temple other tan me and my friend..so we were not so couragely enter it which is situated at the basement of the temple..so funny..and our imagination and expectation is the black entrance is the symbol of "hell" while the gold-like stature that situated at the top of the temple(you can see from the photo above yellow-shining stature) is symbolize the heaven??is it??
















Lets go for a steam boat here..only RM20.00/person and it unlimited from 6pm-10pm..You can eat as much as you can..huhu

KUNDASANG WAR MEMORIAL PARK


A must-visit in Kundasang is the Kundasang War Memorial. Established in 1962, this was one of the first memorials to commemorate the brave Australian and British Prisoners of War who died in Sandakan and during the infamous death marches to Ranau during World War II. The memorial also remembers the people of North Borneo who risked their lives to help the POWs.The Memorial is made up of four beautiful gardens - the Australian Garden, the English Garden, the Borneo Garden and the Contemplation Garden and Pool - to represent the different nationalities.
