Sarawak:Iban longhouse visit
We were fortunate enough to be invited to visit a long house at Sungai Assan. We were given a warm welcome including the traditional tuak and miring. When the cock was brought out to be sacrificed, all parties decided to let the cock live. The ceremony was mainly symbolic.
To live amongst such beautiful surroundings and fresh air must be such a blessing. The long house is itself more than 60 plus rooms long. To access the long house, you have to pass the Lanang Bridge toll complex, take the first turning on the left : i.e. the road which leads to Durin- I think 
It is a tarred road but it was not a smooth ride. I suspect a lot of heavy vehicles use that road.

i dont quite understand yr comment but I sure am glad u come visit my blog..

Talking about longhouse visit, I am so embarrassed. My sister had married to Sarawak for 10 years and I had been to there so many times, yet every time I told my sister I want to explore to remote places like the orang asli and the long house she will always reject my proposal. I think she has been worried too much.
I love rumah panjang. Stayed in rumah panjang before. Cooling.. quiet at night, nice place to relax
you’re pictures are interesting
last time we were in sarawak i wanted to show my wife the real longhouse but instead i showed her the fake one at cultural village. next time you take us to a real one okay?
I think if I stay at the long house.. I won’t be surprised that I’ll wander into the wrong room at night
Thats a huge place and i guess i dont want to stay i guess too big…
interesting catch!!!! Hope you’ll visit mine too…
Interesting images, thanks for sharing them.
Have a good week!
It’s always been enriching to witness traditions.
