Kuching City is sort of divided into two part, Kuching North and Kuching South by the Sarawak River. In fact I think they have their own municipal council as well. The north part of Kuching seems to be even less developed compared to the south part. When you have a major river in the midst of the city, the one thing that cannot be missed is to take a cruise or boat ride along the river to soak up the city.
There are 2 types of river cruise here, the one that is expensive complete with cultural dance and all and the most basic of river cruise. Since I'm not interested to watch the cultural dance in a boat, I took the most basic one, which is about 1/10 of the price.
Some of the scenery caught in the boat ride.

For those who don't know, this is our version of the Taj Mahal. Rajah Charles Brooke built this for his second wife as a bridal gift. Now the head of state stays here.
