Tamparuli, is a small town and a sub-district of Tuaran in the west coast of Sabah, Malaysia. It is populated mainly by the native Dusun, while a sizeable Chinese community runs most of the shops in town.

The most famous landmark in Tamparuli is a long hanging bridge, which is immortalised in the song Jambatan Tamparuli, possibly the most well-recognised Kadazandusun song ever.
