The Mystical Bloom of The World Largest Flower
Gunung Gading is home to the world’s largest flower, the Rafflesia, which can grow up to one meter in diameter. When in bloom the flower gives off nasty smell which attracts flies and other insects. The Rafflesia has no specific season, taking nine months to mature and flowering for only 4 or 5 days before dying. Gunung Gading also has some enjoyable walks and challenging jungle treks.
In the morning depart from the hotel in the city to commence a fullday trip to Gunung Gading National Park. The tour will start with a drive from Kuching city for about 1.5 hours to Gunung Gading National Park. At the registration, you will discover if the Gods have been kind to you..whether today, there is a Rafflesia in bloom. Then you will proceed through the park, and hopefully along one of these thick jungle trails, there will be a Rafflesia hiding, biding you to get a closer look. Your guide/park guide will explain about the plant life at this park to you. Local lunch will be at Lundu Town before return to hotel.
