What to do and see in Kuching, Sarawak: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites

December 19, 2021 Velvet Mowry

Kuching is a fine choice for an enriching vacation that's as packed with learning as it is leisure. Its many museums and impressive planetarium will enthrall even the tiniest travelers, and a quick climb to the top of the Kuching Civic Center will reward you with jaw-dropping 360-degree views. Grab a snack from a stall on the bustling waterfront, and don't miss the absolutely massive Sunday market, which is an electric experience for shoppers, vendors, and observers.

Tua Pek Kong

Reviewed By Penfold-Shah - Harrow, United Kingdom

I found the building, the architecture and the religious artefacts interesting having never been in a Taoist temple. Doris, our guide from Diethelm Travel, explained, to my wife and I, the history of the temple and the intricacies of Taoist worship. The visit was enjoyable and interesting.

The Hiang Thian Siang Ti Temple is located in the heart of Chinatown in Carpenter Street. It has an interesting history (ask at the Chinese Museum near the Waterfront) and has plenty of character.
