 Kuching Waterfront

Kuching Waterfront

 The Kuching Waterfront was where  the first white Rajah, James Brooke  first landed in Sarawak. The Sarawak  government spent a huge sum of  money in reconstructing the  waterfront and reclaiming parts of  the riverside that used to be a docking  area for the villagers crossing the river by small boats. It is now a beautifully landscaped esplanade along the Sarawak River with some eateries and entertainment areas. There are some historical buildings, an observation tower and other sculptures in the area.
