Downtown Kota Kinabalu

Kota Kinabalu

love the air there!
This was taken after a quick walk from the Philippine market 6km away around 7am. #kotakinabalu #sunrise #waterfront #imagoKK #KK #Sabah
The downtown area of this ocean-side city is clean, pretty, and unique. It takes less than an hour to explore this neat historic area!
