Bidayuh Longhouse - Tour from Kuching |
|
|
Visit a Bidayuh longhouse and learn about the culture of these indigenous people of Malaysia
| Overview | |
|
The Bidayuhs, formerly known as the Land Dayaks during the era of the Brookes' and British colonial rule, constitute the second largest of the 25 native tribes of Sarawak. Anah Rais is a large Bidayuh village and is one of the many longhouses that dot the Sarawak landscape. For the urban dweller, the longhouse offers a fascinating glimpse into how the natives in Malaysia continue to live. Many families live under one roof and follow a traditional and communal way of life which is still largely untouched by modern civilization. Located about 100 kilometres from Kuching and quite close to the Indonesian border, the longhouse comprises 100 doors or families. Situated on a hillside next to a clear stream, Ana Rais is a popular destination because of its scenic surroundings and its size, which is large even by Sarawak's standard. Enjoy the warm hospitality of the friendly natives.
