The tradition of longhouse living in Sarawak
AMIDST the lush rainforests of Sarawak, the traditional longhouse stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and communal living of the indigenous peoples of Borneo. These elongated communal dwellings, predominantly inhabited by the Iban, Bidayuh, and Orang Ulu communities, are not just structures made of bamboo, wood, and palm leaves, but are living, breathing entities teeming with life, stories, and a deep-rooted sense of community.
