Malaysia's Sarawak region includes large areas of untouched jungle, although logging decreases their surface at an alarming rate. Fortunately several parts of the jungle are protected by a good system of national parks. In Sarawak you have the chance to visit longhouse-dwelling Dayak tribes.
The region's capital city is Kuching. Around Kuching are several remote coastal villages, such as Pandan and Sematan. There is also a lot of unspoilt tropical rainforest and you can relax on some of the area's nice beaches. The nearby Bako National Park boasts several good hiking trails.
Further east, on the tributaries of the Balang Rajang (Rejang River), as well as along the river itself are numerous Longhouses. The Rejang river is central and southern Sarawak's main transportation archery. The areas downriver from Kanowit and Song are usually less frequently visited by tourists.
In the northwest of Sarawak are the Niah Caves that are accessible by longboat only.
Accommodation is available in numerous towns throughout Sarawak.
