Spring Garden: Private Villas In A Flower Garden With A View Of Mount Kinabalu, That Reminds Us Of New Zealand

Spring Garden Kundasang


Come the season of spring and our IG feeds will be filled with vibrant blooms from beautiful gardens all around the world, giving us Malaysians a serious case of FOMO. While we aren’t able to gaze at cherry blossom trees or stroll through an immaculate lawn of springtime tulips, we do have man-made gardens just as beautiful and worthy of a visit.

One to put on your list is Spring Garden Kundasang, a homestay located amidst an oasis of flowers and lush greenery. Spend a night in a private villa right in the heart of the flower garden with a spectacular view of Mount Kinabalu, or simply visit the garden for a small fee.

Here’s what to expect during your visit or stay at Spring Garden Kundasang.

As the garden is rather secluded, the journey here can be confusing.

But any sense of weariness will vanish once you set your eyes on the gorgeous landscape. The green, manicured lawns are peppered with flowerbeds, as well as trees that boast different types of flowers in vibrant colours – all of which will surely wow visitors.

For an entry fee of RM10 per visitor, you can stroll along the picturesque garden with rose bushes, snap shots of the flora oasis, or simply bask in the tranquillity of the enchanting garden.

Or, simply sit by the rocky riverbank to enjoy the serene sounds of the crystal clear water flowing.

As if the place isn’t already overflowing with beauty in almost every corner of its space, you’ll be in awe at how clearly you can see the peak of Mount Kinabalu from Spring Garden. Rest assured, the mountain provides a spectacular backdrop for Instagram photos.
