Signal Hill Observatory

We had a short stop to see the Atkinson Clock tower from our bus. Not very tall though.



Then we continued our journey to the Signal Hill Observatory.
Here's the Observatory Platform. Cool right?
Can you spot the Atkinson Clock Tower?


See the vast ocean ahead!


Look beyond! Part of the Kinabalu Range..


Signal Hill, the highest point in the city, is one of the best places to get a good view of Kota Kinabalu. Just a couple of minutes drive from Padang Merdeka will bring you to the airy deck where you can get amazing views that extend to the outlying islands of the Tunku Abdul Rahman Park and further.

my Fitline car http://www.pm-international.com.my Health is one of our most valuable commodities - this is clearly indicated by the huge growth in the market for nutritional supplements during the last few years. Unfortunately, many products with low standards of quality have also been washed onto the market. How is it possible to separate the wheat from the chaff? One unmistakable criterium is certainly manufacture according to the international quality standard (GMP/ISO).This is not obligatory! However,only 5% of nutritional supplements are produced according to it - the FitLine® products are among them. Beyond this quality standard, we have developed our own standards t...
