    The waterfront in Kuching provides a picturesque stroll between the older parts of Kuching and the newer more affluent hotels. The waterfront is dotted with small vendors carts selling a variety of soft drinks and snacks. At night the area is illuminated with thousands of lights which relflect onto the river.. At night there are also many more kisoks selling nasi goreng , mee goreng and more diverse malaysian meals. After crossing the Sarawak river on one of the the small ferry boats you can visit the kampungs of Gersik and Boyan where you can eat at the clean outdoor food courts, or buy fresh fish or Kek Lapis from the stalls there.
