Agnes Case House: The small and exquisite museum picks up the steps and climbs to the top of a hill to the former residence of Agnes Case, which is a two-story small building, the whole building is wooden structure, the appearance is pure white. The scenery here is quiet, and the small building is very quiet under the shadow of trees. The interior of the house is exquisitely decorated, the furnishings are very tasteful, with a strong European style. From here, you can also overlook the city scenery of Shandagen, watching the scenery under the mountain, people can not help but imagine the writer here writing a novel while staring at the port of Shandagen. Santagan people are very grateful to the writer because her novel, "The Town under the Wind", Santagan city has received world attention. In fact, the small building was dilapidated at first, and it was restored after repair. The renovated two-story villa is now a museum and opened to the public in 2004. We can see not only the general scene of the writer's creation, but also some antique furniture displays. There is a special display corridor on the first floor, which houses many photos of Keith's youth. The building also has a dedicated audio-visual room to introduce visitors to Keith's brilliant life. Keith's former residence is open to visitors from 9 am to 5 pm. In addition, it is not very far from the city center. It is recommended to walk to it. It only takes about 10 minutes to come from the city center.

    If you want to learn more about the history of Santakone, it is worth a visit. We passed here on a walk to the historical sites. There are many introductions to the Keith family in the house, but the most interesting thing is that the local history and the Keith family are illustrated here. It also has a beautiful view and after climbing more than 100 steps you can go to the tea house for a drink (note, not only 100 steps). It doesn’t seem real enough. Just me and my husband walked in the former residence while the guide sat outside. I think we probably spent 10 minutes here. If we could choose one time, we wouldn't spend money here. We wouldn't waste any money here.

    Finally understand why Agnes Keith likes it very much, the environment is leisurely, very comfortable ❤️ After buying a ticket by yourself, go to the mansion to visit. Colonial imitation furniture and antique furnishings, text posters upstairs, paperwork, photos, mattresses, bathroom furnishings, typewriters, and a screening room in the house for viewing the early years of Sandakan. Unattended or protected their behavior. Protect the antiques left behind. This is one of my favorite places ❤️ The feeling of coolness from the slight wind, the high trees in the green grassland, are all my favorites. ❤️

    Want to see an old colonial house, this Agnes Keith house is one of the best houses in Sandakan, Sabah. After all, the location is no more than 10 minutes from the city center. In addition you will also be able to get to know Agnes better, who is the author of the book "Land Beneath The Wind"

    Firstly, i know this keith house termasuk sebagai salah satu "Dark tourist" di Sabah. So it intereste to come here. Because i like something mystery something supernatural. This place ose sediakan peluang pekej camping utk yang berminat bermalam di kwasan rumah Keith ini untuk merasai sendiri pengalaman. Dikatakan mostly tourist yg mencubanya dapat merasakan kehadiran entiti yang tidak terlihat oleh mata kasar. Datanglah ke Sabah dan mari datang kemari !! ^_^
