Kuching Marathon

Late September in Kuching means the tail of the dry season—warm days and balmy nights perfect for exploring the waterfront promenade and the century-old Tua Pek Kong Temple after your race. Refuel with Sarawak laksa and kolok mee at the open-air hawker stalls along the river, and take a slow boat ride to the Semenggoh Wildlife Centre to see orangutans in the wild.
