Sabah Museum (GPS: 5.96061, 116.07146) is a museum that showcases the culture and tradition of the peoples of Sabah. It is located along Jalan Muzium, on a hill at the corner of Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman and Jalan Penampang in Kota Kinabalu.
The main building of the Sabah Museum is a four-storey built to resemble the longhouse of the Rungus and Murut people. Inside are exhibits of tribal and historical artefacts, as well as a showcase of the flora and fauna of Sabah. Even the famous limestone caves are presented here in replica, to give a feel of how it is like at Gomantong and Madai Caves.
Within the compound of the Sabah Museum are replicas of traditional houses of the different tribes, including a Kadazan bamboo house and a Chinese farm house.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
