Satok Weekend Market
Medan Niaga Satok
Kuching's largest weekend market, offering Borneo wild vegetables, wild boar meat, rainforest fruits and handmade Indigenous crafts.
The market is located beside the Satok Bridge on the south bank of the Sarawak River. It moved to its current site in 2013. It comes alive on Saturday afternoons, and Sunday morning is the peak. The stalls are divided into dry and wet sections. You'll find Borneo's distinctive ferns (midin and pakis), wild honey, rainforest fruits such as dabai black olives and rambutan, Bidayuh rice wine, hand-woven baskets, and a variety of Malay and Dayak cakes. Come between 7 and 9 a.m. for breakfast. It's about a 10-minute taxi ride from the old town.
