Annah Rais Longhouse Homestay

Annah Rais Longhouse Homestay is located 60km from Kuching City. Visitors can take in the breath-taking beauty of the rainforest and the Padawan Mountain range during the easy one-hour drive from the city. There are more than 80 doors, or families, that live in the longhouse, which stands 10 feet above the ground and is built from Ironwood (belian) and mature bamboo (apek). Some parts of the longhouse are still part of the original structure, so visitors can see how longhouses were constructed without nails in the past. There are approximately 1,500 people living in the longhouse, and they are all related to each other.
