Our adventure to Ulu Temburong National Park in Brunei is coming to an end!

This is the hardest part of the tour to Ulu Temburong National Park in Brunei! After crossing the suspension bridge and climbing the stairs, the adventure begins. There are more than 1000 steps🪜 There are rest huts along the way, so you have to take breaks, but it will be difficult if you are not very physically fit😓 You will definitely have muscle pain the next day lol At the top of the stairs, there is a place called the Canopy Walk where you can overlook the jungle! You also have to climb stairs there lol. Since you are climbing up something like a scaffolding at a construction site, the height felt more scary than usual, but the view from there was amazing! All the fatigue from before was blown away~✨ #Traveling with Me #National Park #Brunei #Southeast Asia
