A trip to a Bidayuh headhunter longhouse

#100waysoftravel Annah Rais Longhouse is a Bidayuh settlement 60km south of Kuching… The longhouse is strategically located at a valley with river stream runs behind it and built 10 feet above the ground from Ironwood (belian) and mature bamboo (apek)…. Some parts of the longhouse are still quite original whereby it is attached without nails. There are approximately 1,500 people living in the longhouse and they are all related to each other, and some parts of the longhouse is also pretty modernized… Naturally, be respectful when you are in this area especially when visiting some parts of this longhouse…. It can be a little nerve wrecking when you are visiting the century-old longhouse part especially the Panggah “head house” bedecked with bamboo interiors and a collection of human skulls! #sarawak #sarawakadventure #sarawaklonghouse
