About Satok Sunday Market

Satok Sunday Market is perhaps the most popular market in Kuching for tourists. It is called Satok Market because it is located on Jalan Satok.

The market starts on Saturday afternoon. That's when the villagers begin arriving with their produce and livestock. They overnight at their stalls and continue business on Sunday until 5:00 am.

As you wander around Satok Market, you get a feel of what the people of Kuching buy. Fresh herbs and vegetables are decked out. Bundles of fern or pucuk paku share a table with banana flower. At the meat section, there's a gory selection from beef to wild boar.

Getting there

Walk south along Jalan Tun Haji Openg and then turn right at Jalan Satok. The market is on the left side, about 500 meters down the road.
