RAINFOREST DISCOVERY CENTRE

On the edge of the Kabili-Sepilok forest reserve, this equatorial forest discovery center makes for an interesting visit. A permanent exhibition describes the importance of the dipterocarp forest and the crucial role of mangroves in soil conservation in wetlands. A landscaped garden features hundreds of orchids and carnivorous plants. But the must-see is bird-watching, with almost 300 species recorded here.
