I was born in a typical modern Malay kampung which you can compare to Kampung Bharu in Kuala Lumpur.
Kampung Boyan; located at the area of Petra Jaya, Kuching, Sarawak is the best place for me so far in the entire of my life.
As a resemblance, both kampung share the most common thing, it’s located near to the main city; which for my kampung is just located just across the Sarawak river.
During the evening, you will enjoy a beautiful scenery of Kuching city from the other side.
Dusk ray really outstand most of the buildings to create a galore and spectacular view for eyes to feed on.
With every minute that passes by, you can see the changes in the colour of the atmosphere; resembled by the lighting reflect from the building as you can compare from both of the pictures above.
Now, you guys must be wondering on how to get the other side? Fear not, if you live near the city’s hotel, you can use the service of the penambang to get you to the other side with a fair RM 0.50 to get across.
The penambang will take you from each of the side and they operate until 11 p.m so you guys do not need to be worry if there is no more transportation to get back to the other side.
Penambang or also known as small boat has been the traditional method to go across the river as long I remember. It is now is a trademark of the Sarawak river in any print outs about Kuching.
Here, there is a lot of stalls selling local food and beverages such as the popular kek lapis Sarawak, mee kolok and laksa Sarawak.
There is also some small stalls that sells local merchandize plus not to forget the exquisite ikan Terubok masin that you can get it all here.
After enjoying the food, you can have a long walk along the village waterfront to enjoy the beautiful scenery around the kampung area.
You could have a glimpse of the end of the city which locates the ships for the fishermen.
I hope you guys could be thrill to come here and if you do, we do welcome you with open arms.
