culvilla

visitors and tourists could now explore"live" Sarawak's rich cultural diversity in one single place. The Sarawak Cultural Village (scv) has it all for the benefit of visitors and tourists. The village, built on a 17-acre site, is a sprawling expanse on the beachfront with 7 representative ethnic houses - the bidayuh longhouse, the iban longhouse, the penan hut, the orang ulu longhouse, the melanau rumah tinggi, the malay house and the chinese farmhouse - standing around a man-made lake at the centre. The lake is symbolic of the people's dependence on rivers as a means of communication and livelihood. The plan for a cultural village was resuscitated in the 1980s, after the whole damai area had been identified as a 'tourism zone'.
