Sandakan Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC)

RDC is first and foremost an environmental education centre managed by the Sabah Forestry Department. It has been operating since 1997 but mainly for school visits and organising events for school students and also teacher training courses on environmental education.It was later developed for visitors mainly to sustain the environmental education programme for the future. We formally opened to visitors in August 2007 and is open daily from 8 am to 5 pm. However, visitors are allowed to stay until 7 pm for viewing of the flying squirrels at the 347-m long Canopy Walkway, the only such structure in Southeast Asia.The newly revamped Birders Rest is now with a 90 m-long walkway, an open hall, a small centre and toilets. As of Nov 16th 2013, we have a new operator for the Keruing Cafe whom we hope will provide better services for our visitors.

The Geological Museum

Reviewed By AnnT364 - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

I'm not really into geology, so I didn't really expect much from this museum. Boy, was I in for a surprise! Parking just outside the entrance was free. You have to take off your shoes to enter, so it's clean. Walking around bare-footed gave the place a homely feeling! No need to pay any entrance fee, just register yourself in the visitors book at the front counter. Though the museum is relatively small, it is well organised and well kept. The exhibits and information are easy to comprehend and make geology sound so interesting! Would definitely recommend on a trip to Ipoh. Do take note of the opening times before you go. Mon - Thur 9.00 am - 12.30 pm, 2.00 - 4.30 pm Fri 9.00 am - 12.00 pm, 3.00 - 4.30 pm Sat, Sun, public holidays Closed
