| No trip to Sarawak is complete without a visit to the Sarawak Cultural Village |
I read the above quote in the blue 'passport' that was
handed out to me when I walked through the gates of the
Sarawak Cultural Village. "A fun place to be, with friendly
people and everything works". experience.
The passport describes this 'Living Museum' as a 17 1/2
acre sprawling expanse at the foothills of the legendary
Mount Santubong, fronting the South China Sea. What a
perfect spot. I am thrilled to be here.
As I make my way to the restaurant which is just inside the
gates, I am greeted by Jane Lian Labang, the General
Manager of the Sarawak Cultural Village. Just the person I
wanted to meet. Wow! What a personality! Very friendly and
so filled with passion for the Sarawak Cultural Village.
Jane says: Culture and traditions come from nature.
Keeping culture and traditions alive is respecting nature, in a
way. This 'Living Museum' respects nature and provides a
space for culture to continue. In an age of virtual
communication, there needs to be a place where our culture
can stay alive, keeping with it all the traditions for us to
appreciate. It is important to know our culture. For sometime
during our lifetime, we will ask ourselves this question.
"Who am I and why am I here"? With the Sarawak Cultural
Village, we can go back to our roots and identify ourselves. It
is then we know that we are not lost. It is also then we
remember the words of our parents regarding our heritage.
"I remember my father told me about......."
The only way to experience the Sarawak Cultural Village is to
go there. As you can see from all the pictures, including a
snippet video of the cultural show, the Sarawak Cultural
Village is one place you really have to see for yourself to
experience the culture and tradition that is Sarawak. Just
about an hour outside of Kuching, the Sarawak Cultural
Village really is a fun place to be, with friendly people and
yes, everything works!
P/S Don't forget to get your front row seats at the AWESOME
cultural show. I loved the blowpipe demonstration !!!
