Sarawak’s Gateway Cities – Land of the Hornbills
Sarawak is located on the island of Borneo, the third largest island in the world, north of the Equator. Sarawak welcomes visitors with its lush green rainforests, meandering web of rivers, pepper and the diverse lifestyles of the natives. Sarawak still maintains its reputation as the most exotic state in Malaysia as its rainforests are amongst the oldest in the world. It is home to many endangered animals such as the Orang Utans, Proboscis Monkeys and others. Meet The Locals Most of the people of Sarawak are sedentary farmers who live in communal longhouses and practice swidden rice agriculture. This state has the most diverse ethnic groups with a very distinct culture, language and lifestyle. A various of religion with 45 different languages and dialects runs this town.
❖ Kuching, the capital of Sarawak. It is the fourth largest city in Malaysia and is simply unique. ❖ Despite that, Kuching is surprisingly clean, peaceful and relaxed. ❖ Like all towns and cities in Borneo, the focal point of Kuching and the reason for its existence is the river. ❖ Hiring a sampan to meander slowly up and down the Sarawak. River is the best way to get your first impression of Kuching. ❖ From the river, you will see picturesque Malay villages (kampungs), a golden-domed mosque, a Victorian fort, a whole street of 19th century Chinese shop houses and an imposing wooden-roofed palace, all set against a background of distant mountains.
