Kuching Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

a Friendly Kuching.. Meow

#wheretogo This is definitely my where to go list. Plus, it is just a stone from my stay. Under the scorching sun, I braved the weather and walk to Kuching Waterfront. It never fails to catch my attention when looking at the buildings along the 1kilo metre stretch. You can spot hotels, restaurants, souvenir shops, museum, entertainment areas and few historically significant buildings such as Dewan Undangan Negeri, Charles Brooke Gallery and many other. Happy exploring!

Kuching waterfront

#malaysia It has been a very memorable kuching trip with my husband this time round. With the help of our helps who brought us around the cities, we have discovered many places. From the ancient temples to the famous street foods in kuching. WE have visited those places and have a taste of how the food was like. It was simply amazing. The trip to the temple was a very enriching one. My husband and I love the kuching Waterfront attraction. We went there during the night time and the view was amazing. We look forward to flying back to kuching again in the future to explore more attractions there and try out more local food there.

Chinese Barbeque specialist

#malaysia Address - 50, Jln Padungan, 93100 Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia Highlight - delicious lunch meal My friend drove us to this famous kuching Chinese barbeque specialist restaurant. They served various kinds of meat. As a group dining together, we get to order more food and try it out. We ordered their pork meat, duck meat, and chicken meat. I was surprised that their duck meat was so tender and juicy. The duck skin was very crispy too. The chicken was quite juicy and tender too. The meat was cooked to perfection. The char siew was alright. It could have been tastier. All in all, the dishes were generally well cooked. It goes well with a plate of white rice. We all enjoyed our meal there. The place of the restaurant is very near to the Everrise at the Padungan branch.

Prayers Buddhist Temple

#malaysia Address - Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, 93100 Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia Highlight - Oldest Tua Pek Kong temple in kuching On my day trip in kuching, my friends brought us to the oldest Tua Pek Kong temple in kuching. The temple is also called the Siew San Teng temple. The place is near the waterfront area and the Chinese museum. The temple is not very big, but we had a very fruitful tour inside the temple. There were many locals coming here to offer their prayers and worship. At the entrance are two deities guarding the temple to protect them against others. I also offer some prayers and make some donations to the temple. I will bring my friends here on my next kuching trip.

Colorful Cultural Village

#weekendgetaways I will forever cherish Kuching because it was a place dear to my family. Plus it has been my annual visit spot especially to attend Rainforest Music Festival at the Sarawak Cultural Village. The place itself has its own charmn housing range of accommodations/stays of the indigeneous people of Sarawak. You can learn different cultures and backgrounds of Bidayuh, Iban, Kelabit just to name a few. And im pretty sure u gonna love the majestic mountain that fills the blue green scenery of that place

A must visit place if you’re in Kuching! 😸

Sarawak Cultural Village also known as Kampung Budaya Sarawak, is a very popular attraction near Kuching, in the state of Sarawak. Here you can experience local tribes in their authentic homes; you can learn their customs by participating in one of many workshops. The village is actually a living museum. Sarawak used to be inhabited by many different tribes that roamed the forests. Nowadays there are still tribes in Sarawak, but most of them live far away from civilization, deep in the jungles of Borneo. Tourists can learn about the many different tribes of Borneo. Within the village you can see many typical tribal houses, many of them are known as longhouses. Here a family or sometimes even multiple families lived together. Highlight of a visit to the Sarawak Cultural Village is the dance performance where professional dancers depict numerous traditional dances; each dance originates from a different tribe. We were pleasantly surprised by this performance. There were quite a few hilarious moments during the 45 minute lasting show. A must visit if you’re in Kuching!

🐱 Touched Down in Kuching, Sarawak

Lovely experience we had in Kuching. Nice people with great experience on our palates too! 😝 Extremely in love with Kings Laksa. Must visit & try their Laksa Sarawak. It won’t disappoint you.

Cat Airport???!! How awesome!!

Who else loves airport as much as i do?? Every airport represent their city and as for Kuching Airport it more represent to Sarawak Culture. Quite easy place to go, no confuse lane as it is straight forward entree or exit. U can get popular ‘kek lapis’ as souvenir when u want to go back to your country/state. There is also traditional merchandise that u can buy. It just when u need to drop your luggage, its a bit trick as u need to scan everything even though u haven’t decide to boarding yet. Hope they can change that like in Senai Airport where there’s no need to scan things that not in the drop luggage. Overall nice cosy place & comfortable while waiting for your next flight. #airportvibe

Not my first time to book and stay at Pullman Kuching, the view from pullman Kuching is marvellous; request high floor room, this time i try to stay on Executive Floor which is Level 20. Wow! The view as excellence! If you stay at Pullman you will be walking distance to Kantin in the Granary's to try Dry Laksa Sarawak and Waterfront to watch the Water Music Show which only held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday; Time 7pm, 8pm,9pm. Time might different according to their adjustments. At waterfront you can hires Boat to having tours on the mother rivers. Is consider cheap for 1hours tour.

Also Driving to Damai Beach was a great idea to watch the sunset and healing our mind.

The beach have some Hawker Stalls to have Lunch or Dinner. I'm currently Studying at Kuching with Private University. Kuching city will be nice choices to Travel and Staying. I love Kuching!
