Gunung Mulu National Park - World Heritage Area (Part 2)

Today, 14th October 2007, we woke up early and had breakfast at the canteen near our room. At around 8.00a.m, we went to the Park Headquarters’ jetty. The boat was there waiting to bring us to visit the Clearwater Cave. On the way, we stopped at the Penan settlement to buy some local souveniers.

Before heading back to Miri on 15th October 2007, my dad, my cousin and I did a morning walk exercise around the Park Headquarters. There is a small Information Center which is located near the canteen where you can get some more information about Gunung Mulu National Park or browsed through the maps' replica with details information on the landscapes of Gunung Mulu National Park.

The initiatives of protecting the Gunung Mulu National Park is good and hope no massive renovation to be done inside the caves to avoid damaging its' natural beauty.

It is good to stay close with the nature where it helps to instill the awareness for us to appreciate the nature and the important of keeping our environment green. Protecting the planet and its environment is every body's job.
