Kota Belud


Kota Belud

The quaint town of Kota Belud lies about 70 kilometers, or an hour’s drive away, from Kota Kinabalu. Well-known for its ‘Land of the Cowboys of the East’ soubriquet, it is also one of the most scenic and culturally abundant districts in Sabah.

This town of Kota Belud is a tapestry of cultures and customs; embracing those of the Bajau Muslim majority and smatterings of the KadazanDusun and Irranun mores. For many centuries, Kota Belud has played an imperative role as the cultural hub of Northern Borneo.

Until today, the Kota Belud Tamu remains as the rendezvous for people to mingle and trade.
