Borneo is the third largest island in the world and can be found in Southeast Asia. The entire 73% of the island belongs to Indonesia (the southern part), but we will head to the northern part, which belongs to Malaysia. Walk through the mangrove forest, climb Kokol Hill with a beautiful view, climb on the beach, go to Kota Kinabalu to visit the local mosque and go to the National Park. For many, the island is a symbol of adventure, there is still something to do, and adrenaline is there. Of course.
