Kota Kinabalu City

A lot of people asked me, whether I have been to Kundasang. Well...I wanted to, but since my kid is still small, he is not fit to travel. So we decided to explore KK city.
I am amazed that Kota Kinabalu is developing very well. I must say that KK is even more crowded than Kuching and I think, that's why the construction of new buildings has moved away from KK for decentralization of government offices and shopping complexes.
The mosque I saw on the way back from One Borneo Shopping mall is indeed beautiful and clean. It makes KK looks more interesting to visit.
This is Le Meredian hotel. I should have stayed here instead of Imperial because it looks better .... hahahah...i think.
Near the waterfront is Plaza Warisan. I did not have to take a cab to go here as Imperial hotel, the place where i stayed, is adjacent to it.

The mosque looks new. The city looks modern. I see Starbucks, a recognizable western franchise. Weather must be good there for December. It's freezing in San Francisco :(

DanielChiam :Starbucks Coffee is really nice...

RoseBelle :It's raining season in december but be rest assured, it is not freezing. You can even sweat when it's rain.

Manglish :1997? Many things have changed dude since then.

that mosque is the most photographed mosque in kk. it is built on a lake...so when photog take picture of it, they can take advantage of the mosque reflection from the water.
