The town captures the essence of the region, with its famous vegetable market which operates daily and showcases a variety of fresh produce, local food, and handicrafts at affordable prices. Stop by the Desa Dairy Farm for the opportunity to interact with farm animals and sample fresh milk, cheese, and yogurt ice cream. The Spring Garden enchants visitors with its year-round blooming flowers and stunning views of Mount Kinabalu, while the Sabah Tea Garden invites guests to savor tea flavors, explore the lush tea plantation, and witness the tea-making process. Stop by the Kundasang War Memorial to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers and local heroes who played a significant role during World War II, finding a moment of reflection in the serene surroundings.
