Kuching - Shopping

My verdict?

Could be a tourist heaven but not so much. If you love handicrafts and locally made items for sovenirs then this is a good place to be. Along the waterfront we found a long row of old shops which sold all kind of sovenirs. They were really good and we bought quite a lot of stuff like T-shirts, canvas bags, items made of bamboo, and Sarawak most famous Kek Lapis Sarawak and Tabaloi, etc.

Some good shopping malls too, being the newest in town called "The Spring". A bit far from the city, must use taxis which cost around RM12. Infact, everywhere we went, the taxi charged us a solid Rm12.00. Oh they dont have meters!

Lastly, something funny about this shot! Hubby took this picture of me waiting for my parents infront of "NO WAITING" notice. Of course, the sign was for waiting cars not human, duhhhh....... LOL. Location : The Spring
