Vacation @ Kuching Part 2 - Museums Frenzy!

...............................................................................................................................................................................
Short Talk:
Woo Hoo... I am feeling a lot better now. My cough seems to be getting better...yeah!
...............................................................................................................................................................................

As promised, here is Part 2 of my vacation in Kuching. Part 2 basically covers the Sarawak Museum and also the cat museum. I may not write much on this post. I will post mainly photos only.

First thing in the morning before visiting the museum we need to fill up our tummy first. I can't imagine visiting the museum with an empty stomach.We decided to bring Hans to get a taste of the famous Sarawak Laksa, so we went to a small coffee shop (which...I have forgotten the name) popular for their toast and also their laksa. Kuching is famous for serving kick-ass Sarawak laksa.

It won't be wrong to call Kuching a food heaven. As the years passed by, more food outlets open their doors in Kuching. To this date, you can have food ranging from Local delicacies to Lebanese dishes.


So after a satisfying breakfast. It was off to our first stop, the world-reknown Sarawak Museum. While at the Museum we visited a few places. So I will let the photos do the talking now.

After the Sarawak Museum, it was off to the Cat Museum. I think this is the only cat museum in the world...correct me if I am wrong. I guess the Mayor of Kuching got the idea of opening a cat museum, since Kuching has been dupped the cat city.

Since we were on our way to Damai and the Cat Museum was along the way to Damai we added it into our itenary.

The Cat Museum is located inside DBKU or Kuching City North Hall. The building is situated on top of a hill and provides a breathtaking view of Kuching City. I do recommend you all to go there.

Again, I will let the photos do the talking here.
