Mulu World Heritage Area

The forested mountains feature spectacular razor-edged pinnacles and hide one of the largest limestone cave systems in the world.

It was an wonderful experience in Mulu national park, it is a heaven for the people who loves nature, it has tropical climate that means its can rain anytime, The best thing is that we get to see so many things at one place. The caves, clear water pool, canopy walk, river safari and etc. Park guide's were very elaborative and their knowledge is pretty good as most of them are localities. For a person like it was a perfect getaway as very less mobile connection works at mulu.

The Brooke Gallery

Open from 24th September 2016, the 175th anniversary of the founding of the State of Sarawak, the Brooke Gallery tells the story of one of the most remarkable kingdoms in history: Sarawak and its 'White Rajahs'. In the 1830s Sarawak, a province of the once-mighty Sultanate of Brunei in north-west Borneo, was ravaged by piratical raiding and rebellion against Brunei rule. Inspired by stories of its natural wonders and diverse indigenous cultures, a bold English adventurer, James Brooke, arrived on its shores in his yacht, Royalist, in August 1839. He was to forge a unique bond with its peoples and together they built the foundations of today's Sarawak. The displays focus on the people, places and events that have shaped the state. They take us on a journey through a century of 'White Rajah' rule that began in September 1841, was shattered by the Japanese invasion of December 1941 and ended in July 1946 with Sarawak's annexation as a British Crown Colony. The subsequent move towards political independence culminated in Sarawak's part in forming the Federation of Malaysia in September 1963.

Great museum and historical building. Take about 1.5 hours to read and understand the fascinating history of Borneo. Good mix of artifacts and documents. Well worth the 20RM entry.

Kubah National Park

Reviewed By iisechew - Malaysia, null

????Kubah Waterfall, Kuching When we had our pre-wedding photoshoot 3 years ago, we knew it had to be different.. We hiked in Kubah National Park all the way in to the waterfall, about an hour of journeying, together with 2 family friends who are amazing photographers. We brought formal attire, and changed there and there, just to immerse ourselves in the wonders of Borneo's Rainforests. ????The waterfall was magical.. It's not the gushing type with thundering waters, but instead, a gentle cascading fall with beautiful serenity pools, perfect for cool-water dipping. What makes this waterfall ethereal is how lush vines and ferns of different greens line the side of the cascades, flourishing and thriving with the constant gentle patters of water. The photography there was well worth all the effort. ????How to get there? Drive by car (or rent) to Kubah National Park, using Waze or Google Maps. From Kuching, the journey will take about an hour or so. Upon arrival, Malaysians only have to pay RM 10 per entry, Foreigners at Rm 20. You will receive a map with 2 main destinations - the top of the mountain, and Kubah waterfall. ????You can give the top of the mountain journey a miss. From what I hear, there isn't even a view to enjoy, and it's just a tar road journey all the way. Kubah Waterfall is to me the main attraction here. ⏲Come by morning; by afternoon, you might be denied entry because the rangers would have no one inside the rainforests after 6pm. *Special thanks to Gabriel Diong and Julieann for the amazing photoshoot!

Semenggoh Nature Reserve

Reviewed By Tanpt

20 minutes easy drive out of Kuching. Visit during feeding times (check web site) - when the wardens will call the orang utans and they will come for their favourite food (banana and coconut) Amazing to see them swing in and out, mums with baby in arm. one arm on rope , the other clutching the banana or coconut. interesting to see them smash the coconut on the hard resting place - to get to the meat . well worth the trip out. But be warned, on the rare occasions during fruit season, they may prefer wild fruit and now come when called!! Great for kids and easy walk
