Plaza Merdeka, since opening its doors, has been a proud member of the revitalization of Kuching’s historical district. The plaza has transformed this rather tranquil area of the city into a landmark that is now pulsating with energy and vibrancy.
Located in the heart of Kuching city, it is only steps away from the picturesque and buzzing waterfront. Also close by is Chinatown with its quaint streets, several temples, the renowned Sarawak Museum, the old State Mosque with its five golden domes, pre-World War One shops and many other streets and lanes brimming with history and other noteworthy heritage buildings too numerous to mention.

Complementing the plaza is the four-star Waterfront Hotel, which is a boutique business and tourist hotel.
