What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find Rumah Radakng's architecture impressive, appreciating its modern representation of Dayak culture. It's noted as a popular venue for events and school gatherings. However, some feel it lacks historical depth and could benefit from more interpretive information and amenities.
"We went there on Nov 25 . As we entered the compound, we manage to take the stairs up but limited to the corridors outside. We were unable to enter the building as it is lock.
This structure doesn’t look like a museum to me. Most of visitors are mainly school children. Sometimes schools organise some events, so those school children can gather there as their venue and perform their activities based on what the school organised."
Gary Ong
"Interesting place to visit. The structure is amazing even though it is modern. The giant steps can be climbed to get to the long house rooms. The rooms are closed, but you can peep though at the ends to see a little bit inside. There is food and toilets at the place. RPh 5000 to park."
Clifton Hunt
"Need major refinement works and it left unattractive physically due to the unfinished decorative structure of the building. From far it seems a tourist attraction by itself but not the inside. You won't spend more than 30 minutes here."
