📸 Top Photo Spots at UMS Pic 1 & 2 🏖 ODEC Beach (UMS Private Beach) • A hidden gem inside UMS, facing Likas Bay • Features a small jetty, white sandy beach, and palm trees — perfect for seaside silhouette shots • Best visited in the late afternoon, when the sunset casts golden light over the sea, creating a dreamy, romantic atmosphere Pic 3 & 4 Pink Mosque (Masjid UMS)-back door of the mosque • Iconic pink-domed mosque perched on a hillside, overlooking the South China Sea. • Captures well in dawn or dusk light — dreamy pastel sky reflections. • A favorite among visitors for both its serene beauty and vibrant hue. Pic 4 & 5 shooted while sunrise Hidden Hill Spot (East Side of UMS Campus) • Located on the east side of campus, away from main trails • Requires a short 5–10 minute easy hike on an undeveloped path • Offers wide-open views overlooking Likas Bay and distant Mount Kinabalu silhouettes • Rarely known to visitors, the sunset light here is soft and the atmosphere very peaceful ♦️ATTENTION:Dress modestly when visiting the mosque 🎯 Photography Tips • Best time to visit: • Sunrise: 6:00–7:00 AM (Pink Mosque, Hill Viewpoint) • Sunset: 5:30–6:30 PM (ODEC Beach, Hill Viewpoint) • Equipment: • A smartphone camera is sufficient • If using a DSLR or mirrorless camera, bring wide-angle and prime lenses for better shots #travel #university #sabah #kk #kotakinabalu
