Kuching Waterfront is the most visited attraction in the capital city. The esplanade runs for roughly 900 metres along the Sarawak River’s south bank. There are food kiosks, a restaurant, a cafe, and street food hawkers strewn throughout the length of it. Many of the colonial-era structures shown here have been repurposed for modern usage. The Chinese History Museum, Sarawak Steamship Building, and Square Tower are the three structures.

It’s recognised for its interior’s rough, thick jungle, much of which is protected parkland. Kuching, the capital, is a busy metropolis on the Sarawak River. The Astana, the former palace of the White Rajahs, and Fort Margherita, designed to combat pirates, are among the city’s 19th-century monuments.
