About Signal Hill

Signal Hill is the highest point in Kota Kinabalu. It got its name from the signals being sent up the hill using flags (hence, the name Bukit Bendera in Malay for the hill) whenever mail steamships arrived at Jesselton Port.

There is an observation platform here where visitors can get a panoramic view of Kota Kinabalu below. On a clear day, one can see all the way to Pulau Gaya, which in at the Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park.
