Kota Kinabalu
Kota Kinabalu is the capital of Sabah. It’s located on the northwest coast of Borneo. Kota Kinabalu is a more modern city, with quite a few newer buildings. The Sheraton and Hilton hotels dominate the skyline and judging by the yachts in the bay and the golf courses, it’s a place where tourists with deeper pockets tend to stay.

Mari-Mari Cultural Village
Mari-Mari Cultural Village is located approximately 25 minutes from the city. Each house was built by descendants of the tribes they represent and offers a truly genuine experience. Not only does this village portray these tribes through the architectural genius of their traditional homes but also through a range of simulated lives of the olden epoch by the residents of the village.
Selo Mari-Mari
Selo Mari-Mari se nalazi otprilike 25 minuta od grada. Svaka kuća je izgrađena od strane potomaka plemena koja predstavljaju i pruža zaista autentično iskustvo. Ovo selo ne prikazuje samo ta plemena kroz arhitektonski genij njihovih tradicionalnih kuća, već i kroz niz simuliranih života iz prošlih vremena koje prikazuju meštani sela.
Houses
Bamboo cane is the basic material for building houses, both outside and inside. Everything is made from bamboo cane: walls, floors, basic furniture (beds, shelves, hearths, 'inter-floor structures'). The roof structure is made of bamboo covered with leaves. Everything is very simple and clean. The weather is mostly warm and humid, so windows and doors are covered only with curtains.
Kuce
Bambusova trska je osnovni materijal za izradu kuca; kako exteriijera tako enterijera. Sve je uradjeno od bambusove trske; zidovi, podovi, osnovni namestaj (kreveti, police, ognjista, “medjuspratna konstrukcija. Krovna konstrukcija je od bambusa pokrivena liscem. Sve je vrlo jednostavno i cisto. Vreme je uglavnom toplo i vlazno tako da su prozori i vrata pokriveni samo zastirkama.
Rooms
The parents' room is separate, that is, it has a 'door' made of a curtain. The rest of the family sleeps in the central, large room while the girl's room is on the 'upper floor' or gallery. You get to the gallery by a ladder. The father of the family is in charge of the ladder; in the evening he sets it up so the daughter can go up, and in the morning so she can come down from the gallery. This is for 'protection.' The daughter has no choice, even if she doesn't want this kind of 'protection.'

Stairs
Leading up to the house entrance are “steps” made from cut logs so that the width of each step is basically the same as the width of the log; about 20cm. Nowadays, all the houses in the village have extra, simple steps or ladders, but only for the tourists.
Stepenice
Do ulaza u kucu vode “stepenice” nacinjene od usecanog balvana tako da je sirina stepenica prakticno jednaka sirini balvana; oko 20cm. Sada sve kuce u selu imaju dodatne, jednostavne stepenice ili merdevine ali samo zbog turista.
The enemy's skull on the porch
On the porches more the skulls of the enemy. The natives are known as "bounty hunters". They believed that the spirit of the enemy would help them if they cut off his head (while he was alive) and placed his skull hanging in the porch of the house. They first stun the enemy with an arrow soaked in poison and then, they cut off the head, while he is still alive.
Lobanja neprijatelja na tremu
Na tremovima vise lobanje neprijatelja. Starosedeoci su poznati “lovci na glave”. Verovali su da ce im pomoci duh neprijatelja ako mu odseku glavu (dok je ziv) i lobanju postave da visi u tremu kuce. Neprijatelja prvo osamute strelicom natopljenom u otrov a onda, seku glavu, dok je jos ziv.
Burying the remains of family members
Family members are buried on the property, but only temporarily. After some time, roughly 2 years, the grave is opened and the bones are moved into an urn, which is then attached to a tree on the property. Usually, there’s one urn per tree.
Burial on the property is meant to prevent heirs from selling the land, so the property always stays within the family.
Sahranjivanje ostataka clanova porodice
Clanovi porodice se sahranjuju na imanju ali, samo privremeno. Posle nekog vremena, otprilike 2 godine, grob se otvara I kosti se prebacuju u cup koji se onda fiksira na drvo na imanju. Obicno, ide jedan cup po drvetu.
Sahranjivanje na imanju ima za cilj da spreci naslednike da prodaju imanje tj da imanje stalno ostane u vlasnistvu jedne porodice.
