Day 2 Kuching: Bako National Park (96 photos)

Bako aptly named Bakau, is the oldest National Park in Sarawak. the trip promise us 8 hrs of sight seeing, but was cut short by the impending rain drifted over from mount Santubong. How ever we manage to glimpse the infamous Orang Belanda, the wild pig & monkey, an emerald poisonous snake as well.
