Más información sobre el libro
The island of Borneo - the third largest island in the world - conjures up images of a vast green tropical wilderness harbouring orang-utans, proboscis monkeys, exotic pitcher plants and the indigenous rhinoceros hornbill. From the Sepilok Oran-Utan Sanctuary in Sabah to the Omar Ali Saifiddien Mosque in Brunei; from lavishly decorated temples to rustic villages, life in Borneo is one of peaceful multi-culturalism. Chapters cover the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, the the oil-rich sultanate of Brunei and the huge Indonesian state of Kalimantan, which covers almost three-quarters of the island. From the unforgettable landscapes and idyllic beaches to the broad smiles of the local people, Borneo is a place few visitors leave without taking a little piece away in their hearts.
