Between The Hill And The Blue Water

Most of the built-up areas of Sandakan lie within the narrow strip between the Trig Hill behind, and the Labuk Bay in front.

Run Down Apartments

These old apartments remind on of how bad the actual living conditions in Sandakan can be when one is not seduced by the brochures and deceptive advertising promoting tourism.

The Fish Market

Sandakan is blessed with plentiful supplies of fish.
