Bandar Seri Begawan

Vibrant, yet peaceful. Both modern and timeless. A fusion of majestic opulence and traditional respect. Bandar Seri Begawan is the centre of Brunei’s commerce, finance and government. In many ways, it is also the heart of Brunei’s cultural landscape, housing some of the nation’s most revered landmarks. The city’s breathtaking Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque is a stunning tribute to the nation’s deep-rooted faith, while the truly Bruneian Kampong Ayer water village offers a glimpse of the nation’s quaint Asian charm. Beneath Bandar Seri Begawan’s lavish adornments, gold towers, sparkling fountains and colourful mosaic tiles, lies a city steeped in quiet respect, grounded in Islamic tradition, and exuding a sense of peace that makes it one of Asia’s most distinctive capital cities..

Ramadhan Bazaar
We all know that when the puasa (fasting) month kicks start annually, all are entitled to the famous 'all-you-can-eat-buffet' like Ramadhan (or Ramadan) bazaars! he Muslims will buy their meals from the bazaar so that they can break fast in the evening. The bazaar usually opens around 4pm (that is probably the safest time to visit a bazaar although some bazaars start a bit later or earlier depending on the vendors themselves). But remember that the bazaars usually end by 7-ish as they will need to break fast for dinner.
