Welcome to Sarawak Cultural Village

One of Malaysia’s best-known and most iconic cultural attractions. Sarawak Cultural Village is a unique award-winning living museum. Offering and exciting and informative introduction to local cultures and lifestyles.  Nine authentic replica buildings represent every major ethnic group in Sarawak, Bidayuh, Iban and Orang Ulu longhouses, a Penan jungle settlement, a Melanau tall-house, a Malay town house, a Chinese farmhouse and pagoda.  Each is staffed with members of their respective ethnic groups, in traditional costume, carrying out traditional activities.  Thus, every house has a “storyteller” who is an expert in describing and interpreting traditional cultures and lifestyles.

After touring the village, visitors can enjoy a multi-cultural dance performance in the village’s own theatre. As well as participating the dance, music and craft lessons.  There is also a good ethnic restaurant and a handicrafts shop on-site.  Subsequently, other attractions and amenities include a Sulpture Garden, the Rainforest Music House, with traditional instruments and interactive music workshops. The Dewan Legenda (Hall of Legends),  a creative space complete with dance studio, library, information centre, costume gallery, lecture hall and creativity room.
