First Time in Sabah


View in Kota Kinabalu

We welcome you to Sabah. Well, there will be many great experiences that you will get if you visit Sabah. I can assure you that.

This month of May, we have the Harvest Festival to celebrate. Anyone that never seen and had the real experiences to see the festival well this is the right time you come down to KK, Sabah together celebrating this only and one festival a year. So, hurry up folk join us in this celebration.

 Before that let's learn about this festival.

The Pesta Ka’amatan is Sabah’s very own, joyous and exuberant rice harvest festival. Not so long ago most of Sabah’s indigenous peoples were mainly agrarian folks and subsistence rice farmers. This, they had been for times immemorial, and they have emerged as proud and valiant people with their very own social orders and religious belief systems in which the Bobohizans, the female shamans of  Sabah, played a paramount role. The Pesta Ka’amatan, the rice harvest  and thanksgiving festival remembers  those times in an era where customs and traditions are changing much too fast. If you want a glimpse of Sabah’s many ethnic entities, and capture the true spirit of the mystical  “Land Below the Wind”,  this is the time to visit us!
