Overview

Brunei

Brunei is one of the richest countries in the world, and known for its reserves of hydrocarbons. This state, formed by two enclaves to the north-west of the island of Borneo, is covered by equatorial forest over more than half its territory. The coasts are not very interesting; however the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan, has one of the largest mosques in Asia, and is worth visiting. This is a country that you visit if you are passing through, but which is not worth going to just for the sake of it.

pros

  •  Brunei is easily accessible from Singapore or Hong Kong.
  •  The capital is worth visiting.
  •  The country's interesting features are concentrated in the capital. You do not waste time with transport.

cons

  •  Brunei is not a seaside destination.
  •  The beaches are marshy.
  •  There is virtually nothing of cultural interest here.

Country Guide

Our Editorial team's advice

Brunei has very limited tourist attractions. Each year, the 12,000 people visiting the country are happy to pass through it quickly. Just one day is enough to visit Bandar Seri Bagawan. You can include Brunei in your programme during a stay in one of the neighbouring countries. You can easily get there from Malaysia. Some tour operators include Brunei in their tours to Singapore and Malaysia. The only attraction in the enclosed region of Temburong is the jungle. There is no point in going there unless you are intending to go on an expedition.
