Sarawak Kuching 砂捞越

some of the photos taken during my one & only trip to Sarawak Kuching many years back...

View of Sarawak from the plane. 印象中的砂捞越是一个淳朴的地方。
saw this interesting chilly red fruit at their local market, I still don't know what is the name and how's the taste of this fruit, wonder if anyone who knows can advise me....

On the way to visit the cultural village, stopped near the Satok Suspension Bridge for a picture.

Scenic view of the Damai Cultural Village 文化村. You can see a lot of Sarawak natives and their habitation. They stay in the long houses traditionally.

at the cultural village, a local woman 纺织 weaving a fabric .
this cat was no ordinary cat, it's the wild mountain cat 山猫, 是肉食动物。 它的笼子里只剩下鸡的羽毛,吃到连骨头都没有,就知道它的杀伤力,看到我们毛骨悚然。。。

These are fighting cocks 打斗鸡, very fiece leh, that's why have to be individually locked up. Saw this during a visit at a friend's family farm.

我还没有去过砂捞越,那里好玩吗?哇,那只山猫和打斗鸡都很凶噢。

Margaret said...

还不错啦。我去时是探亲性质,所以只参观了文化村和猫博物馆。不过我相信现在应该有更多东西看和玩。 如果你想知道更多,可以请教来自砂捞越的惠芳。。。

是啊,那只山猫眼神凌厉,虎视眈眈的注视着参观者,让人看了望而生畏,敬而远之。

那座吊桥和文化村我有去过,以前我到那边时,文化村的入门票好像是RM16,但现在就不清楚了。那边的Damai Beach 也不错啊!等我有空去把以前的照片找出来在post 上来。

Margaret said...

haha, Anthony, I am sure you are right...it brings back fond memories whenever one flips the old albums.

Hi Kate

When did u go there? I heard about Damai Beach but didn't have a chance to go there, I think it was going to rain at that time so we decided to skip it. 等你有空把以前的照片找出来post上来噢...

hi Margaret,

我前2年夜也去過砂撈越﹐也有去文化村﹐就是沒有去貓博物館。

Mary 和 auntie Irene 說的沒錯啊﹗ 真的是很美啊﹗當然是人啦﹗嘻嘻~~~

惠芬的世界 said...

我也有同感,好美的小姐哦!

好啊!如有机会的话,我们一起去砂捞越玩吧!说真的,到现在我到还没去过文化村呢!

至于那座吊桥好像是断了!我得问问我的friends.我在我妈的肚子里时,可有走过那座吊桥哦!

Margaret said...

哈~ Nicole 惠芳,你们不要寻我开心啦,那是很久以前的照片啦。。。不过无论如何,还是要谢谢你们的夸奖!
猫博物館不只是参观猫相关的东西,还有很多展览品习俗可看哦!

哈哈惠芳,你是当地人却没有去过文化村,我们外来旅客可一定要去一趟文化村或Kuching Museum 才算到过Kuching。。。嘻嘻~ 吊桥如果真的断了,会很可惜噢,因为是当地的地标.
