The Touch City

The Touch City (previously known as Auyin Hill Resort in 1990) has been revived with a must-go, brand new concept. Now, The Touch City focuses on passing down the Chinese traditional culture, propagate the Nanyang (South East Asian) customs, advocate the culture of the right path, and most importantly promote the sense of goodness. As our moral values are deteriorating by days, our hope is to revive the essential attitude, principles, and spirit of ancient sages, by promulgating the influence of education through these elements of attraction. Our attraction focuses not only the young, but also the old ones. We aim to cultivate filial piety among the young, and of course, creating nostalgia for the old ones with stories and mythical sculpture.

Art and Garden

Reviewed By Lynnette58 - Hobart, Australia

Yes, it's a hidden gem, amazing, quite difficult to find, and not listed in the major tourist attraction brochures. It is more than worth the effort to find, especially if you have had your fill of the traditional tourist fare. The plants and the glass art are beautiful, as are the mosaic steps around the garden. For us, this was a real highlight. Beautiful, hidden away, tranquil and welcoming. Not accessible for those with mobility problems

KLB Garden

Located in the heart of Tebedu, KLB garden provides a new leisure concept, "civilization meets nature" to visitors. It is a new retreat destination in Sarawak where both local and foreign visitors from bustling cities can truly experience Borneo.

We were there for about 2 hours. Please check feeding time before you visit, we made it for otter feeding and it was fun. Bidayuh performance available on Sundays. Good varieties of animals, and well maintained. Has riding activities for hire, mini playground areas for kids too. Kids had fun feeding goats, sheeps, rabbits, deer etc. Saw an area for boating but wasn’t open when we were there, perhaps later on.

The Putrajaya Botanical Garden is still open, but some of the facilities are not available due to the ongoing virus. So there’s no bike hire or boat rides etc, basically anything that requires staff. At times it felt like I had the entire place to myself such was the dearth of visitors. The gardens are beautifully landscaped, with some great trails of gardens, forests and even a canopy walk. A great place to see some lovely plants.

Sarawak Orchid Garden

Reviewed By robn802 - Ontario, Canada

Not the easiest to find as the signs run out once get to the road to the State Legislature, a sign at the top to go left would be helpful to tourists. We found it and told other tourists how to find. Overall, a great assortment of orchids, the outside ones seemed to be out of season but we still enjoyed what was there. We accidentally left the cold room to the end & that was the best as it had the best orchids, recommend doing it that way. If you have the time, go! Also free admission.
