Places We Kno: July 2011

Cultural Village or best known as CV is located at Pantai Damai Santubong. Approximately 40 mins drive to the place.You can either go by urself if you got friends who are familiar with the place or you can take the tour package but it`s quite expensive. Lets us explore the place briefly from each of the pic that i manage to snap during the tourin...

The entrance fee is really expensive, so students are advise to bring ur student card..u will get good price..^^

Peoples dun`t randomly cut line ya..

Another more, there are notice dat asking the visitor to not randomly touch the things

Porcupine (Landak) thorn- belief is use to sumpit(blowpipe) animals

Crocodile teeth

the teeth is used as accesories

This snail make good music. Just put the stick in between the snails then pull it out. (im not dat good in describing it ;p)

Not in proper order, exactly dis is the skulls dat ther hang up above the fire pit. The peoples said dat dis is to ensure dat the hot ashes can heat the skulls so dat they will not disturb others, kinda like dat la the story if i not mistaken.(sorry pic a bit blur bcuz i was scared during takin dis pic..haha)

The fire pit, can see the ashes still got fire.

turtle skins? (maybe labi2)

Another creative craft from the coconut crafter man

Now it`s tym to explore the Melanau House..

From the outside view. This house is tall and we need to climb a stair to reach the top. It is a very steep stair.

inside view


This is the bedroom from the second floor.

Next is the Malay house but we din manage to go inside because actualy it`s quite tiring to venture to each of the house so we just pick which house we want to go randomly.
