Travel to Kuching
Kuching is a city that has an extensive history. It has seen numerous governmental changes over the years, including being a capital in the Bruneian Empire. It was ceded as payment to James Brooke for helping to stop a rebellion, remaining under that administration for more than a century.
It has continued to be influential since Malaysia declared its independence in 1963.
A visit to Kuching is usually about the fine dining opportunities, but the city serves as a gateway to Kuching Wetlands National Park as well. You’re also within a day trip of Bako National Park and everything else that Borneo and Malaysia offer.
There are many museums to tour throughout Kuching, but none are as unique or interesting as the Kuching Cat Museum. The museum was founded in 1993 and features a changing entryway that has visitors walk into the mouth of a cat to enter the museum. Four galleries, which contain about 4,000 artifacts, are on display. The history of cats, dating to the Egyptian empire, is also on display.
Fort Margherita is another top destination to explore. Built in 1879 by the Brooke family, this fort has a similar architectural style to a standard English castle. The main tower is quite unique and the grounds are worth a day of exploring. It hosts the Brooke Gallery today, showcasing the history of the Sarawak region.
Because of its history, Kuching is one of the most unique Malaysian cities you can visit today. If you love a good adventure, then this city should be your next destination.
