The Sarawak Cultural Centre, a living museum located at Santubong. The Sarawak Cultural Village conserves and portrays the multi-faceted cultures and customs of ethnic groups such as the Ibans, Bidayuhs, and Melanaus. The Cultural Village is tucked away on the foothills of legendary Mount Santubong, 35 km or 45 minutes from Kuching town and is definitely a must-see attraction. Near the Cultural village there is the Damai beach.






The Cultural Village is quaintly landscaped with a manmade lake at the centre surrounded by 7 authentic replicas of ethnic houses: the Bidayuh centre house and longhouse, the Iban longhouse, the Penan hut, the Orang Ulu longhouse, the Melanau Rumah Tinggi, the Malay house and the Chinese farmhouse. Each house is inhabited by staff from the appropriate ethnic group, dressed in traditional costume. They live traditional lifestyles and keep alive the arts and crafts of their own tribe.
Here, it is possible to see Sarawak's ethnic diversity at a glance. The handicraft is both bewildering and tempting, including the Kain Songket (Malay cloth with gold inlay), Pua Kumbu (Iban housewives textiles), Melanau Terendak (sunhat), Bidayuh tambok (basket), Iban parang (swords), Orang Ulu wood carving and Chinese ceramic.



The rich cultural heritage in the form of dances and music presented by various ethnic groups is one of the highlights of the visit.

Gunung Gading National Park

Gunung Gading national Park is located in the Lundu District, southwest of sarawak. The Park is just 5 minutes drive from Lundu town or about 2 hour's drive from Kuching .The Park consists of rugged mountain peaks which provides a scenic backdrop to the nearby beaches at Pandan and Siar. The waterfalls in the upper reaches of Sungai Lundu have become a popular recreational destination for both local and foreign visitors. The more adventurous visitors can take a hike right up to the peak of Mount Gading which is 906 meters high.
Gunung Gading is home to the world’s largest flower, the Rafflesia tuan-mudae (bunga pakma) which can grow up to one metre in diameter. When in bloom the flower gives off a nasty smell which attracts flies and other insects. The Rafflesia has no specific season, taking nine months to mature and flowering for only 4-5 days before dying.
The flowers can be found on specific vines like the Tetrastigma. The spores settle on the host plant and develop into a bud which then becomes a gigantic flower, brownish red in colour. It stays in full bloom for about a week only. The main pollinator for this flower is the carrion fly.

True Life story

From Wadan B
8 years ago, I married a man who always kept me broke and on the streets even while pregnant. He was abusave in many ways. I felt that my life was going to stay like that forever. One day, I learned about the women's resource center who helped me get out of that situation. In one year, that man ruined my life. I thought I would never get it back on track. When my daughter was a year in a half old, I lived in my own apartment until she was five. I was pretty satisfied with my single life with my daughter and then I ended up with a man who treated and still treats me with love and respect. He never even said one cruel word to me. Just when I thought of never getting married again, we got married last year and now have a beautiful five month old daughter. Yes, I am leaving out the bad details of my last marraige but non of that matters cause I have learned that not all guys are the same. This one has a job and I never lost my home with this one. We've been in the same place together for three years and married for one.
