Tenom
Agricultural Park is one of the most exciting man-made parks found in
Borneo, located 3 hrs drive from Kota Kinabalu. The park is set against a
background of truly natural landscape with lush greenery of the Crocker
Range which creates a picture of a beautiful natural park all
around. The Park is a sprawling 500-acre establishment, administered and
owned by the Sabah Agriculture Department and is part of the 1,500-acre
Lagud Sebrang Agriculture Research Station. The park was officially
launched in March 2001.
Home
to a myriad of parks, research centres, lakes and farms, the Sabah
Agriculture Park is a colourful paradise of flora and fauna. The Park is
home to various gardens with the Ornamental Garden being one of the
most frequented. A version of nature’s paradise, the garden has 21 mini
gardens, such as the Bougainvillea Court, Hibiscus Garden and Lily
Glade. The flowers are often in full splendour and there is nothing more
memorable than a stroll in the park surrounded by cascading and
colourful blooms. Also worth a visit is the Evolution Gardenwhich
showcases the different stages of plant evolution from as far as 4.5
billion years ago.
