Tuaran trip planner

Filled with tree-lined streets, Tuaran is a lively little town and an important center of commerce. True to its name--allegedly derived from the Malay word for "bargain" or "sale"--every Sunday the town holds a big market, where traders from all over the country sell traditional coconut sap wine and the popular mee noodle dish. A good addition to any Tuaran itinerary is a visit to the water villages, featuring unusual stilt houses that balance precariously above the estuary below them.
