Mesilau, closed to the foot of Mt.Kinabalu is the highest point accessible by automobiles. It is a great place to escape the usual hot weather in Kota Kinabalu. At an attitude of 1981 meters above sea level, the temperature ranges from 15-20 degree celsius in the day time and 10 degree and below at night.
Accommodation is available in Mesilau and Kundasang like these lodges including a 5 star Mesilau Resort.
Flowers and green grow exceptionally well in the temperate highland.
I believed the summit trail is at the left hand corner of this picture.
Zoomed into the trail.
I could see Laban Rata Rest house.
Beside enjoying the cool weather, the spectacular view of Mt.Kinabalu looming in front was another bonus in the morning.
A picture to remember that beautiful morning.
I spent the morning zooming my camera at Mount Kinabalu. It was a real fascinating experience in seeing the top of the mountain at close range.
We put up a night at the Dreamworld Resort. The accommodation was disappointing. The chalets appeared deluxe from outside but most the rooms were "run down". Surprisingly, there was no in-house telephone to communicate with the Receptionist. Getting extra pillows cost RM10.00 each.
I inspected this property when it was opened for business in 2010. The resort was well furnished especially the rooms. In the lap of 5 years, their rooms have run down, most probably caused by the poor house keeping and lack of maintenance.
