Day 1 Evening in Kuching: Strolling Through Historic Carpenter Street

#springitinerary

After dinner, I spent a lovely evening exploring Carpenter Street, one of Kuching’s most charming heritage areas. Entering through the iconic Old Bazaar Kuching arch, located beside The Waterfront Hotel and Merdeka Plaza, I was instantly transported into a blend of culture, history, and local charm.

The street is lined with traditional shophouses, quirky cafes, antique stores, and vibrant street art — all making it a must-visit for anyone in Kuching. Just steps away is the beautifully restored Old Courthouse, adding to the area’s timeless appeal. It’s also an Instagram-worthy spot, perfect for capturing photos of old-meets-new Kuching. A peaceful, atmospheric walk that truly capped off a memorable Day 1.
