Marudi – a beautiful town


Marudi is a riverine town located at the north of Sarawak and nearby the border of the country of Brunei. It took about 2 hour’s journey from Miri city to Marudi and about 21km from Miri city before the estate road way to Marudi city. Is kind of exploration and experience to have ride on estate road because of its uneven and narrow road, some may even not enough for 2 cars to pass by. It will be suffering as it took more than 1 hour to drive on this estate road to reach to the ferry point.

Estate road way to Marudi

There would be two ferry points where we need to across 2 rivers before reach the Marudi town.
Marudi has its own port where people taking speedboat as their transport. It also has its own airport where it just located very near to the residence.  Seems Marudi has all three kind of transportation in its town: Air, Water, and Land.
The first impression to me is that this little town, a place that is far from the city, giving me a warm feeling. There are lots of shops although all not opening during chinese new year and the road is clean and seems everything tidy and just furnished. It’s a kind of small but a wondeful place to live.
