Journey to Kota Kinabalu & Novotel 1 Borneo

Hey there,

It's been a while I haven;t update any of my blog since the Hari Raya. that fiest has gone now. Next one is Haj pilgrimage.. But I wont talk about Haj Pilgrimage here now. :p

On the 1st November 2008, Me n My Brother had our shopping holiday trip to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. It was our first time to go there and It's by airPlane. Have you heard about the Largest Lifestyle Hypermall in Borneo...yea when it says its big...its really BIG!!!

Inside the NOVOTEL Hotel (flat screens, beautiful view, etc)


And the toilet is VIEW-able. Remind me of the Hotel in Rijswik, Holland. No worries, it includes with blinding.


This is the Centre Atrium of the Hyper Mall, 1 Borneo.
1Borneo is located 15minutes away from the Capital, Consists of a large block of building, 5Hotels, 2 still building (at the north side), and Tune shop (owned by Air Asia). According to the plan, they even have Hovercraft docks O___o!! Shops are mostly branded (i.e: Levi's, Bodyshop; F.O.S, Adidas, etc...) and on the ground floor consist of a wide range of restaurants which includes K.F.C, McD, Sushi King (nyum2), Japanese restaurant, Penang restaurant, Starbucks (nice!!)... and on the top level they have Cinemas (8 cinemas!!) Borneo Rainforest, massage places, and don't forget..the Arcade!
You will spend the whole 1 day to shop in this Hyper mall. To shop it is relatively cheap and can get variety of sizes i.e big shoes and big clothes and T's.. e.g 4XL or 5XL...ahaha. Places open by 10am till 11pm..I guess.... kinda like it. There's one Cigar shop called Trinidad which supplies Havana Cigars... Cool to look at it...but its gonna spend you deep-deep..


STARBUCKS!! TOTALLY DELICIOUS

Along the Way from City Centre to the Hotel are consists of a very beautiful views and nice Island. They even have very awesome Architecture of tall buildings and skyscrapers. The weather are the same as in Brunei, Raining!.. Nevertheless, people in Sabah is very friendly and helpful. Its not a regret to go there.

Ferrari Spyder Parked Outside wuhooo...

Fish massage..very murah. if the fish dead, then you have smelly feet ahaha

2 buildings (mentioned earlier) still on built.

We've spent 3days 2 nights for our holiday, Its really worth to stay in 1Borneo. But next time our journey back here is to stay in the City Centre and will be doing some pulau-ing (going to the islands) for snorkeling. especially the Manukan Island. view of the Corals are magnificent.
Enjoy reading. Will update more of my Journal. Probably will go Japan this December. So just wait or it. :)
