Without a doubt, the Rafflesia Rainforest Reserve is the prime location to witness the largest flower on the planet. It’s situated within the confines of the Crocker Range, close to the Tambunan village, and roughly an hour’s drive from Kota Kinabalu.
The reserve stands as a sanctuary for the rafflesia, recognized as the world’s most significant bloom. It is home to approximately a dozen distinct species of this flower, which are typically exclusive to Sumatra and Borneo. Intriguingly, the rafflesia is parasitic and develops within stems of forest vines. Their blossoms can reach diameters of up to a meter. The Sabah reserve refuge is host to a variety of species indigenous to Sabah alone.
