After strolling along the Kuching waterfront,I hope on board a sampan or river taxi (Rm0.50cent) which will take you across to Fort Margherita.Named after Margaret ,wife of Charles Brooke(the second of the three "White Rajahs" who once ruled Sarawak.This 19th century fort was strategically built on a hillock  to protect the city from enemy or pirate attacks.To-day it has been converted into a Police museum exhibiting old cannon guns.
