Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin Mosque

This magnificent mosque sits at the very heart of the capital city and the country's Islamic faith. Built in 1958 and named after the 28th Sultan Of Brunei, it is one of the most impressive mosques in South-East Asia. Set amid its own lagoon, the mosque seems to be floating, surrounded by lush greenery and floral gardens, while its glittering dome, covered in real gold, soars above the skyline. Featuring luminous stained glass windows, floors of gleaming Italian marble, walls of Shanghai granite, chandeliers from Britain and Carpets from Saudi Arabia, the mosque brings together the world's best materials in a tour de force of architectural beauty and spiritual ambience. A marble bridge across the lagoon brings you to a replica of a 16th century Royal Barge, which used to host religious ceremonies, like Quran reading competitions. At night, the mosque is illuminated, making it a vision to be seen. Opening Hours : Sun-Wed, 8am until 5:30pm, EXCEPT at Prayer times Closed : Thurs-Fri Shoes are to be removed before entering.

Tasek Lama Recreational Park

Reviewed By TheOExpress - Hong Kong, China

There was a reason everyone else was wearing hiking or athletic gear! All but the very shortest looped trail on the map require relatively sturdy footwear I’d say: I was lucky not to fall over and get covered in mud. That being said, I’m glad I got as lost as I did. For mid-afternoon in Saturday, I was very surprised to have paths and ridges to myself for most of the hour or so I was wandering round and the scenery is lovely. There’s a lot more than just the waterfall to see...

Reviewed By LicaR4 - Sao Paulo, Brazil

This tour is a must-do in Brunei. The tour guide Mark Puter Delima was awesome. I went by myself and the tour was excellent. The price was very good, especially considering that I was a solo traveler, which usually takes the prices higher up. I contacted Mark at: [email protected] and +6738168540 by whatsapp
