when u become a tourist in your hometown....

how's the feeling of being a tourist of your own hometown?? sounds weird but true.. sometimes we just don't bother to visit places in our own area.. we tend to visit places far away such as australia or china but when it comes to places like in our hometown we just don't bother to know them.. well, i did visit those interesting places in my hometown but only once in a blue moon... lol... just last week, i have the chance of 'revisiting' those place again when four friends from west malaysia visited sarawak....

really had a memorable holiday here in my hometown, kuching... bringing them around kuching was just as fun as travelling in other states.........



-laksamana cheng ho statue in friendship park, kuching-


we visited lots of places, thanks to the marvellous weather... from city to wildlife centres... here, we have things that you cannot see in other places.... such as???


-the big creature here, orang utan-


-how lovely the orang utan were-

we also manage to allocate some time for this fort... well, sad to see that it is not well maintained.. seems like it's neglected but it still stands tough...

-fort margerita-

beside the fort is sarawak's new DUN..... located just opposite waterfront , i guess it will be the next landmark of kuching...


-new DUN-

and here is the famous drink from kuching, the layered teh c peng.... innovation just never stop... haha.....


-5 layer teh c peng-


-waterfront-



we didn't spare the library as well....

-sarawak state library-


-the oldest car i can find in kuching, was wondering whether it can still move-


-a temple in muara tebas-

kuching is just a place like no other........... although we are lagging far behind bigger cities like KL and penang , kuching is a place where u wouldn't want to miss... :P i love kuching...

really had an enjoyable holiday.... hope to travel with u guys again soon...
