The western coast islands, less popular than the those on the oriental coast, will delight the visitors who venture there. Easily accessible from Kuala Lumpur, they present a diversity of landscapes and auras as well as a rich cultural heritage.

Malaysia is a surprising country in every way. And the cluster of lakes linked to one another that go by the name of Tasik Chini will definitely live up to expectations! If this is not the case, then maybe the lake's monster will leave you speechless; rumour has it that it haunts the depths!

 As well as being the capital of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is one of Asia's hubs. It is a modern town surrounded by oil palms where you should spend several days.

One of the main towns in Borneo, populated by around 150,000 inhabitants, was for me a simple stopover when I travelled in the east of Sabah. This coastal town doesn't have any beaches, and is completely surrounded by oil palm plantations. Lahad Datu lacks attractions and interests despite a decent tourist development. 
It effectively seems like a strategic point to organise a passage through on the the nature reserves in the region, situated only a few hours away by bus or taxi. Whether it's to discover the tornadoes of barracudas in Sipadan or the smallest elephants in the world at the Tabin reserve, you will find a tourist information centre as well as specialised agencies to give you information and reserve an excellent service during your <a href="/malaysia/">stay in Malaysia</a>.
I would therefore recommend that you get information and reserve as quickly as possible (booking in advance is generally mandatory) and to not delay time in this town, consider it as a simple stop.
