The Main Bazaar

This row of 2 story shop-houses is located on one of Kuching's oldest streets dating back to 1864. This place is considered as an 'antique arcade' not only because of its old-fashion faŠ·ade but due to the fact that a large collection of antiques and handicrafts are also found here. This is the place you can see examples of Chinese shop-house architecture, many of them, occupied by the same family for generations. Souvenir-hunters can also seek out an assortment of traditional brassware, pottery, ceramics, tribal arts and many more.
