Kuching, the capital city of Sarawak, is located on the stunning island of Borneo in Malaysia. Often referred to as one of the most vibrant cities in Borneo, Kuching is renowned for its diverse culture, historical landmarks, and delectable cuisine. The city boasts a variety of attractions for visitors to explore, including the famous Sarawak Museum, an exquisite exhibition of Sarawak's rich historical past, and the vibrant Kuching Waterfront, offering a picturesque view of the city's skyline. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate a trip to Semenggoh Nature Reserve, a sanctuary for numerous semi-wild orangutans, while food lovers can indulge themselves with Sarawak’s unique and diverse cuisine in the city's bustling markets and night street food stalls. Rich in heritage, nature, and culinary delights, Kuching truly offers an unrivaled experience for discerning travelers.

During our stay in Kuching, we went to the Semenggoh Wildlife Center to see orangutans and to Bako National Park to see proboscis monkeys. In Semenggoh, we were able to meet seven orangutans, but in Bako National Park, we were not able to see any proboscis monkeys. However, the trail in Bako was fun.
