Exploring Kuching's best museums with a side of Sarawak culture—rain or shine, these spots deliver ⚡🏛️ Top Museums to Visit: 1. Borneo Cultures Museum (Jalan Tun Abang Haji Openg, 93400 Kuching) - A modern gem, packed with interactive exhibits about Borneo’s vibrant heritage. Open Mon-Fri 9:00–16:45 (last entry: 16:00); Sat-Sun 9:30–16:30 (last entry: 16:00). Don’t miss the stylish architecture and selfie-friendly outdoor landscape! 2. Natural History Museum (Taman Budaya, 93000 Kuching) - Perfect for science lovers, set in western-style grandeur. Exhibits on local wildlife & geology are great for quick learning. Open Mon-Fri 9:00–16:45; Sat-Sun 10:00–16:00. 3. Sarawak Museum (Jalan Tun Abang Haji Openg, Taman Budaya, 93400 Kuching) - History buffs, rejoice! This spot blends old-school colonial design with deep dives into indigenous culture. Open Mon-Fri 9:00–16:45; Sat-Sun 10:00–16:00. Even on cloudy/rainy days, wandering this building is a vibe. Practical tips: All these museums are super walkable from central Kuching—bring an umbrella if it looks cloudy (I got caught in a drizzle, but the indoor halls are perfect for escaping tropical rain). If you want a mellow morning, hit Sarawak Museum first for fewer crowds. Remember: admissions end 30–45 mins before closing! For lunch, try Top Spot Food Court nearby for seafood—affordable, tasty and local-approved. Getting around: Use local buses or Grab for cheap rides in town; everything is close together so walking works too if the weather cooperates. #KuchingMuseums #SarawakCulture #RainyDayTravel #MalaysiaExplored #tripdotcom
