          There 
        is no better place than Sarawak to discover the wonders of a tropical 
        rainforest. Sarawak's rainforests, which covers over two-third of the 
        state's total land area, are virtually nature's paradise. These rainforests 
        are ecological wonders; each site has its individual eco-system supporting 
        its own range of wildlife. It is home to almost 2,000 astonishing species 
        of some of the world's most exotic plants and animals. Watch the antics 
        of the leaf eating proboscis monkey, marvel at the bloom of the Rafflesia, 
        and take a look at the carnivorous hornbill. These are some of the flora 
        and fauna specimens that the ever watchful can discover on a jungle walk. 
        A few of the national parks are: Mulu National Park, Niah National Park, 
        Bako National Park, and Similajau National Park. 
      Mulu 
        National Park 
        Situated in the far northeast of Sarawak, it is the gate way to fantastic 
        and gigantic caves. 
      Niah 
        National Park 
        300 miles up the coast from Kuching, hidden in the forest of Miri is Niah 
        National Park. 
      Bako 
        National Park 
        Sarawak's oldest national park was established in 1957 on a 2,728 hectare 
        site.
