The Abode of Peace
Brunei is an ancient wealthy nation and used to have many warships protecting its trade and port in the early 1500s. Petroleum is the biggest source of income for Brunei’s economy and is the reason behind its prosperity.
Brunei has a rich culture that is heavily influenced by Islam and is more conservative than Malaysia and other neighboring countries. Unlike many Islamic countries Brunei does not practice the parda system and allows women to enjoy a higher level of freedom in the county. Due to being invaded multiple times the focus of the country is to protect its boundaries and also to maintain friendly relations with nearby countries. There are many places to visit on your trip to Brunei such as:
- Saifuddien Mosque – This is considered one the most beautiful mosque in the Asia pacific region with a dome made of pure gold. This mosque mixes the renaissance architecture style with traditional Islamic architecture. A visit to this mosque would leave you in peace and tranquility.
- Royal Regalia – This is a museum dedicated to Sultan Bokiah of Brunei. You can view the vast amount of wealth in Brunei here in the form of silver and gold ornaments and many tactical war weapons. Using a trusted car hire would be a good idea if you do not want to get lost while exploring Brunei.
- Palace of Sultan – Although you may never amass enough money to live like Sultan of Brunei you can still have a glimpse of his lavish lifestyle by visiting his palace. Words cannot describe the beauty and grandeur of this place and the huge portrait of this palace at Brunei airport hardly does justice to this magnificent piece of architecture.
