Kuching, Sarawak.

Sarawak State Legislative Assembly building, located in Kuching, Sarawak - the capital and most populous city in Sarawak.

Went there with my family in 2009. We stayed in Harbour View Hotel, just opposite Kuching Waterfront. So finding food and a place to hang-out was no problem to us.

And we hanged-out at the waterfront a whole lot! We get to watched a man dressed in a traditional Iban costume, playing "sape" - a traditional Iban's instrument. 

And at night, there was cultural performances.

There's a boat service that takes you across the river, which only takes about 5 minutes or so. On the other side, there's a big food court where you can find great Sarawakian food like Sarawak laksa & Kolok mee.

The people of Kuching are very friendly. They are very generous when it comes to smiling. Didn't go exploring the forest, "rumah panjang" & all the authentic features of Sarawak. Maybe we'll go again next time.

Can't remember much of this trip, but I remember that I enjoyed myself hanging out at the waterfront. Going on & off the boat and smiling at every Sarawakian bcoz they are just so friendly. Can't say anything about the hotel or restaurants or even kek lapis bcoz my memory of them are only barely touching the surface. 

I miss it, though. It was a good trip with my family.
