Rainforest Discovery Centre, Sabah

The Rainforest Discovery Centre (GPS: 5.87457, 117.9436), or RDC, is a forest research facility in Sepilok, Sandakan. It is about 1 km from the famous Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre, in the Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve. At the centre, you can explore the canopy of the rainforest trees by going through the canopy walk. It is a great place to view the birdlife of the rainforest, since you are so far up from the ground.

Entrance fee is RM10 for visitors outside Malaysia. For those holding MyKad, the fee is RM5.00 while for children between 5-17, it is RM2.00

About this website



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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
