Fairy Caves in Kuching, Sarawak Borneo is located
about 50 km from the capital and getting here is quite easy considering you
take a proper tour guide with you. The caves are about 8km to the nearest town
calledBau which used to be a gold mining town back in the day. The Fairy
Cave is also known as Gua Kapor in Malayand is one of the very
interesting caves to visit while here. My trip to the caves was very scenic
where I passed various pepper plantations, local villages and lots of greenery.
Make sure you stop at Bau Town to stock up on water and snacks as there is
absolutely nothing there at the fairy caves. Also, make your toilet stop at
town too as there are no toilets at the caves.
The caves seems to have been given a revamp as there are
walkways and concrete staircases made for tourists or local who go there. I
asked my regular guide Selvem why the Sarawak Government has not paid
any attention to these caves here and even he did not know how to answer me. It
is a unique cave within Kuching but is not promoted. Seems like the government
made the signboards but never really followed up.
An
amazing world of greens with the sunlight hitting part of the caves. Sadly
there is no info on the Sarawak Forestry website on these caves.
