An Overview of Your Adventure

Kuching invites you to explore its enchanting streets and alleys, once tread by the legendary “white kings” during their century-long reign. Immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and scents of old Asia, where awe-inspiring colonial treasures, like the Astana and the historic Court House, bear witness to the Rajahs’ legacy.

Take a page from Rajah James Brooke’s book and hop on a sampan (river taxi) at the Waterfront jetty, just as he did. Cross the Sarawak River to a charming Malay village nestled on the hill leading to Fort Margherita. Here, you’ll delve deeper into the White Rajahs’ history at The Brooke Gallery (closed on select dates).

Wander through the historic streets of Carpenter, Gambier & India, explore ancient alleys, and encounter the oldest Indian mosque in Kuching. Pay your respects at the oldest Chinese temple in Sarawak, where history whispers from every corner.
