Description
Discover the Mah Meri Cultural Village on Pulau Carey and explore the Klang Mangrove Point Eco Park on a day trip from Kuala Lumpur. Learn about the Mah Meri tribe and their traditions.
Step away from the city and enter the spiritual world of the Mah Meri people, one of Malaysia’s indigenous tribes renowned for their hauntingly beautiful wooden masks and graceful ancestral dances. Located on Pulau Carey, the Mah Meri Cultural Village offers a deep look into their living traditions.
Witness a ritual “Jo’oh” dance, and join a mask-carving or leaf-origami mini workshop guided by master artisans. Learn the meaning behind the masks, the symbolism of their dances, and the tribe’s deep respect for forest spirits and nature.
Before heading back to Kuala Lumpur, continue a brief visit toward the Klang Mangrove Point Eco Park, a quiet coastal sanctuary where the river meets the sea. Enjoy a walk on the boardwalk through the mangrove forest—spot mudskippers, crabs, herons, and mangrove trees that protect Malaysia’s shoreline.
This unique day-trip blends anthropology and ecology—perfect for travelers seeking authentic, non-touristy experiences that connect culture and conservation. Return to Kuala Lumpur by late afternoon with lasting memories of Malaysia’s indigenous spirit and natural beauty.
