The Sabah World Water Day 2-Day Conference held on 21-22 March ended with a visit to the KK Wetlands. Many might find this name unfamiliar and are used to its old names - the Likas Swamp, Likas Mangrove or the KK City Bird Sanctuary.
I felt a bit guilty that I had traveled thousands of miles to see other similar wetlands (Read here) and (Taman Paya Bakau) but failed to pay a visit to one situated at my home city's backyard. Thi is a mere 2.9Km away from KK city centre just behind the Signal Hill where the city clock tower is built.
The site covers 24 hectares of mangrove forest and is traversed by a 1.5Km of boardwalk. An hour of slow walk along the boardwalk allows one to enjoy fresh sir and tranquility and at the same time it provides a pleasant experience of spotting birds, plants and wildlife
