Kota Kinabalu's Sunday Market, Gaya Street originally named Bond Street. Gaya Street located in the Central Business District for over a hundred years. The wooden shops with nipah roofs are long gone but here is where generations-old family businesses are still thriving passed down from father to son.
Every Sunday morning, Gaya Street is closed to traffic for the Fair. For a small fee, trades set up stalls under shady trees and over-sized umbrellas for the morning. Shop for anything like batik sarongs, the famous Tenom coffee, fruits and flowers, arts and craft, footwear, antiques and souvenirs, cakes, even pets and herbs!. There are also mobile heath clinics offering minor check-ups, and even politicians.This is the best place to experience the cross-section of the local population when entire families enjoy a Sunday outing.
The Gaya Street Fair is on every Sunday from 6.30 am to 1.00 pm. _________________ *:★* sun *★:*
