Hello everyone,
 |
| Hi, i'm at Sarawak Cultural village |
 |
| I'm crossing Bidayuh Bamboo Bridge |
Today I want to share my short trip to Kuching Sarawak, all thanks to my friend's wedding that I have this trip to Kuching Sarawak. We (me and my bf) took Airasia direct flight to Kuching Sarawak, we were there for 3 days 2 nights. We booked an apartment at Merdeka palace hotel, but we don't feel comfortable staying there because the room is dirty, and the whole room is just too creepy, so we moved to Pullman hotel, and it was just a lovely room. I booked a small viva car(90perday) for this trip, the person in charge without notice cancelled my booking, and I only know about it because I called the guy in charge day before I'm going to Kuching Sarawak. I ended up renting Alza, and it cost me Rm150perday.
We received the car at the airport then we drove to our hotel and settle everything. I'm using waze app to look for direction, we drove to Sarawak cultural village to check out different cultures in Sarawak including Malay, Chinese, Melanau, Bidayuh, Orang Ulu, and Iban. It is a perfect place get to know the local cultural and lifestyle. There are 150 people living in this village, they wear traditional costumes and dance for visitors. They also showcase the making of handicrafts. I even bought a big necklace with two matching bracelet cost Rm70. It was actually a rainy day, luckily it stopped when we visited SCV. After we walk around SVC, we enjoy performance in their theatre, they performed multicultural dance performances. We had our dinner at my friend's pre wedding ceremony dinner at Fei Chui restaurant.
