Known to some as the ‘Venice of the East’, Kampong Ayer is the world’s largest settlement on stilts. This floating village is home to some of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet and might just open their doors to you and insist you come in and share a hearty home-cooked meal. To get across the river, you’ll need to flag down a water taxi for an average of BND1 per person. But don’t worry, the boat drivers are usually nearby, ready to bring people around the waterways.

Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah

First opened in 1996, Yayasan Shopping Complex is one of Brunei’s earliest and longest-standing shopping malls. Considered a tourist attraction for a majority of its existence due to its scenic fountain avenue and its close proximity to other popular sites such as Kampung Air and the Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque. Recently, the shopping centre has gone through a few changes but has since reopened its doors with a new line-up of brands, mostly featuring locally made products.
