Summary: This is a pictorial book with beautiful, colorful and clear photographs of Kinabalu Park – Malaysia’s first World Heritage Site as declared by UNESCO.

The book consists of photographs of the park, its surrounding area and of course, the magnificent Mount Kinabalu.

It brings back nostalgic memories of climbing the highest mountain in the country and staying in Kota Kinabalu when I was studying back in the 90s. There are photographs of the journey climbers have to make from the foot of the mountain until the highest peak (Low’s Peak).

Photographers, adventurers, travelers and nature lovers would find the book very interesting as it provides outlook of the park with all its glory flora and fauna as well as the facilities.

The book also provides practical information on park facilities and travel advice for those who have yet to set foot there.
