In Sabah, Malaysia, there is a Mali-Mali cultural village that gathers the five largest indigenous peoples. The village has restored its buildings in accordance with the traditional styles of the indigenous peoples, combined with the display of the original living conditions, fully demonstrates the tribal culture of the indigenous peoples of Sabah. . In Malay, Mali means "come, come, come". It means to welcome tourists. That's why I have the opportunity to walk into this village where the indigenous people gather and experience the primitive and rough indigenous people. life.
Malaysia is a multi-ethnic country with as many as 32 ethnic groups in East Masabah alone. Although the largest population in Sabah today is Chinese, many indigenous cultures are still preserved. It takes only half an hour to drive to the Marimari Cultural Village on the outskirts of Kota Kinabalu. Among them are the Kadasan Dushun tribe with the largest number of Aboriginal people, and the fierce Maori hunter head tribe. The Maoru tribe, especially in the early days, had the habit of hunting human heads. Adult men must cut off the enemy ’s head to prove that they are truly brave men. The more heads they cut off, the more respected they are.
It ’s almost dusk to come to Mali. Because the tourist reservation system is adopted here, we are the last batch of tourists to book on the day. The number of tourists is not large. We only have us plus two tourists in this batch. At that time, a golden sunset came down from the dense forest, covering the young man in a long skirt under the golden light. I saw him holding a musical instrument and playing music leisurely, giving a sense of tranquility and tranquility, like a jungle. Elf
Entering the cultural village, crossing a suspension bridge in the dense forest, you came to the first tribe, the village of the Dushun tribe of Kadashan. The quiet village entrance is erected with a human totem, which makes people feel both mysterious and nervous. This is the largest aboriginal ethnic group in Sabah. In fact, it is a union of the Kadashan and Dushun ethnic groups. It is mainly engaged in hunting, planting of rice and upland rice. The harvest festival in May every year is the most important festival of the Dushun tribe of Kadazan.
The bamboo tube rice produced on the spot is hot and carries the fragrance of bamboo.
Among the Lentaya people, the Lentaya people are good at bark processing. Apart from supporting wooden pillars, a large part of their houses are built from bark.
One of the traditional foods of the Ba'ao people is to make the rice milk first, and then use a fine-pored coconut shell to hold the rice milk and put it on the oil pan. The rice milk flows through the holes into the oil pan and is fried into a shred. And then folded into a triangle. This cake is fragrant and crunchy and delicious. You can learn how to make it on the spot.
The most impressive image is the head of the Maolu hunter. Entering this tribe will be special. If you want to enter the tribe, you must send a representative to negotiate with the patriarch of the Maurut. The other party needs to check whether you carry dangerous goods, and then use your right hand to shoulder each other. Use the original communication method to communicate. Only then can enter. This reflects the fierce and unfriendly nature of this primitive tribe from the side.
The sword in front of a man is a tool for hunting human heads. Of course, in modern society, head hunting is illegal and it is no longer possible.
In addition to hunting human heads, the Maolu tribe is also good at blowing arrows. Staff will demonstrate how to blow arrows to hit the bull's eye made of coconut shells.
In Mali, not only can you move your hands, move your legs, you can also move your mouth and participate in all aspects, immersing in it. This is unmatched in some scenic spots in China, and the atmosphere in the village is very good. There is mystery, excitement and warmth. There is joy, a glass of rice wine under the belly。
After visiting the houses of various nationalities, you can also enjoy an aboriginal folk song and dance performance, which is very exciting. After the performance, you can take a photo with the actors and take a photo. Finally, there is a Saba gourmet buffet waiting for you. It can be said that the whole trip is to eat and drink while experiencing different customs and customs, it is really a worthwhile trip.
Entering the Mali Cultural Village, time is back here. As a part of the emerging cultural tour, whether it is a couple, parent-child, family, or friend, you can find fun in it. In addition to satisfying the brain's desire for knowledge, it can also satisfy the taste buds for travel Demand. I hope that next time you come to Sabah, you will not only have "islands" in your mind, but also the mysterious "Malimari".
