- Sarawak Cultural Village - Situated 35 km and about a 45-minute drive from Kuching towards the northern part of Kuching Damai, this 17-acre “living museum” provides an excellent introduction to the people of Sarawak, their culture, and crafts. The tour includes an award-winning 45-minute cultural performance featuring songs and dances.
Possibly the finest “Living Museum” in Southeast Asia, Sarawak Cultural Village blends history, tradition, lifestyle, and architecture with a touch of education and theatre to create a unique multicultural experience.
Seven distinct traditional houses, spread across a picturesque 17-acre site, offer a perfect introduction to Sarawak, its people, and cultures. Whether you’re interested in the longhouse lifestyle or the vibrant hospitality of Sarawak, the Sarawak Cultural Village is a must-visit for anyone in Kuching and Damai.
The tour begins with a 30-minute drive to Sarawak Cultural Village. The village’s slogan, ‘See Sarawak in Half a Day,’ reflects its unique, award-winning status as a living museum that provides an excellent introduction to local cultures and lifestyles. The 48,000 square miles of Malaysia’s most majestic state are condensed into just 17 acres. A leisurely stroll through the village reveals seven homes, each representing a different culture, including the famous longhouses of Borneo. Known as SCV, the village showcases the seven major ethnic groups of Sarawak: Iban, Bidayuh, Penan, Orang Ulu, Melanau, Malay, and Chinese. Each house is an exact replica of traditional dwellings, complete with authentic wood, landscaping, and carvings. Each building has a “storyteller” who is an expert in describing and interpreting traditional cultures and lifestyles and will happily pose for photos. The village also features daily multicultural dance performances in its own theatre.
