TRAVEL INSPIRATION

Brunei Darussalam is well-known for their grand and opulent mosques but some, which may seem architecturally-understated on the outside, are no less impressive on the inside. Suri Seri Begawan Raja Pengiran Anak Damit Mosque in Kampong Manggis, Madang, is one such example. Take a moment to pause and marvel at their stunning dome, ornately decorated with geometrical and floral motifs, an awe-inspiring sight that will take your breath away.
