Rungus Longhouse, Kudat.

 Kampung Bavanggazo is located 40 kilometres to the south of Kudat town. The village lies within the precinct of Pekan Baru Matunggong and there some signage along the main road linking Kota Kinabalu - Kudat that should point to the right exit. From the main junction, the Rungus longhouse is situated some 3 kilometres further down the road.

In general, Kudat is located some 3 hours to the north of Kota Kinabalu

 

Unlike Sarawak, most ethnic tribes in Sabah do not live on longhouses. In fact, the mere mention of longhouse lifestyle often instantly conjures the images of Iban, Bidayuh, Penan, Orang Ulu and Melanau, which are the main ethnic tribes of Sarawak. It is almost safe to make such generalisation, until one comes across the unique Rungus tribe in Sabah which still reside in the unique communal-style longhouse.
