A visit to Lan E Tuyang Homestay @ Bau, Sarawak

Here comes the third post of my Sarawak tour visit. Previous post covers about the city tour, now comes another different sights of Sarawak. During the three days tour, I had an opportunity to visit Lan E Tuyang Homestay, located at Bau, Sarawak, 45 minutes drive from Kuching city.

这是我的第三篇关于砂劳越的游记。之前的只是写关于城市里的游览，这次带给大家看看砂劳越州的另一面。在这3天游览中，我有机会去到位于Bau，砂拉越的Lan E Tuyang民宿参观。从Kuching市区，这地方需要45分钟车程。

It is a very simple wooden bamboo house, made with natural ingredients, all from nature.

This is called bunga jarau. Made from the wood. When they cut into long tiny sheets, it curls naturally. The indigenous people use it as a decoration in the house.

这东西叫bunga jarau. 用木所制。他们把它切成长长的一条条，它就会自然卷起来。原住民用它作为屋内装饰。
