Lady Mariah

I am just an ordinary woman living in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia. With my little free-time as a full-time local reporter, I decided to be a part-time traveler to widen my knowledge and get to know new places, culture, lifestyle, beautiful people and it gives me the confidence to deal with a range of situations no matter where I am. I created this blog June 2011 for fun, to share my traveling journey.

Kota Kinabalu CNY Carnival 2012

Wednesday, January 18, 2012 |

Chinese New Year (CNY) is one of the most popular festivals in Sabah, particularly in Kota Kinabalu (the city where I lived).

The annual CNY Carnival for this year was officially started yesterday, January 17, at Lintasan Deasoka and Gaya Street.

Around 400 stalls have been set up along Gaya Street starting from 6pm to 11pm selling local products, Chinese New Year essential items, food and beverages in conjunction with the four-day event, which ends on January 20.

The event is one of the three carnivals held at Lintasan Deasoka and Jalan Gaya yearly. The other carnivals are the Gaya Christmas Carnival in December and the Tadau Kaamatan Carnival in May.
