Located about 50 km from Kota Kinabalu, the waterfalls near the town of Tamparuli is accessible by easy hiking. There are 3 packages offered: A: a 8 km hike with 7 waterfalls; B: a 5 km hike with 3 waterfalls and C: a 3 km hike with 1 waterfall. I took package B (cost RM 23: RM 15 guide fee and RM 8 conservation fee). You can easily get water and food supply at the starting point. There is a clean changing room and toilet just nearby. Wear comfortable drifit clothing and good hiking shoes. Bring your swim gear for a nice cool dip in the pool at the Murug Turug waterfall. The enclosed pictures of waterfalls are: Murug Turug, Kionop, Piolungan, respectively.

Rumah Terbalik, the first upside down house of Malaysia is located in Kampung Telibong, Mile 21, Jalan Telibong, Tamparuli, Sabah, Malaysia. Nestled within the compound of Rumah Terbalik is also a souvenir shop (i.e. Tamu) well stocked with handicrafts and souvenirs and the 3D Wonders Museum. Using recycled wood and materials specifically to create a more local atmosphere, Rumah Tebalik has an area of 1,500 square feet and equiped with a living room, a dining area, a equipped kitchen, veranda, two bedrooms and a toilet. This fully furnished house is constructed with a slight tilt, and with everything fitted upside down inside the house, it certainly challenges the viewers' perspective when within. The kampong house signifies our past and heritage. Upside down is another perspective of seeing something. It's meant to be a fun way of looking at ourselves and life. As it is located along the main highway leading to Mt Kinabalu, Poring Hot Spring or even Kiulu River, it can help to enhance the already existing tour packages offered by travel agencies as being a short stopover point. A visit to the upside-down house guarantees to one of your most memorable experiences and it is a must-see attraction on your Sabah itinerary.As of February 2012, Rumah Terbalik has been listed within the Malaysia Book of Records as being the first upside down house of Malaysia! The 3D Wonders Museum is where visitors can explore the uniquely themed galleries, the first of its kind in Borneo, showcasing the importance of conservation while promoting the beautiful landscapes and the myriad of local cultures present in East Malaysia. Through the use of special art techniques, two-dimensional paintings will appear to pop out of the surface and come to life, immersing you in a vivid experience like no other. Create your own wacky stories and zip-line through the entire experience as you embark on an adventure in the 3D Wonders Museum right now! This latest attraction is just beside the renowned Rumah Terbalik, Malaysia one and only Upside Down House!

Taking photo inside the upside down house is prohibited, but I had a lot of fun taking photo outside, especially the upside down bathroom, garden and car. The timing to visit in the house is too short but the ticket price is so expensive. Will not come back again unless they reduce the ticket price. I can suggest to add on some interesting activities because this place less attractive for some people.
