BINTULU: The 8th Borneo International Kite Festival in Bintulu, Sarawak, will once again showcase kites of all sizes, shapes and colours from Sept 26-30 this year.
Flying majestically and gracefully, these art pieces in the sky are marvellous to behold.
Yes, enthusiasts and kite experts will offer spectators the opportunity to fly their kites with the help of instructions and tips.
To experience these thrilling sessions, drop by at the old Bintulu Airport which is in the middle of the fast developing town during the last weekend of September to get a feel of these kites.
From multi-section butterflies to stunt kites, their touch and feel is astounding and challenging to those new to the sport.
In the hands of professional kite handlers, the kites seem able to do almost anything – turning, dropping straight down, shooting right up or dancing in the air.
If standing under the sunny sky is not your thing, then stand in the shade to enjoy the spectacle of these flying beauties.
When the show is over, you can pick your way to the kite workshop for an understanding of how these kites are made, assembled and manipulated.
‘Wau’ or kite workshops will be held while a stunt kite clinic should prove interesting.
