hi, come to Brunei during hari raya celebration (like Christmas eve). for 2011 it will be 1st week of September 2011. You can enter sultan palace and meet him and his family personally. shake hands with them. The palace will open to public for 2 or 3 days. Everyone are welcome. Foreigners, visitors or local.. No ticket, no invitation card. Free of charge. for more info just find our local guide tour.. Book ur ticket to Brunei, Choose gadong are to stay not Bandar seri begawan town. That will be so quite. Gadong is busy 2nd town beside Kiulap. ok enjoy ur stay here. Cheers...

MY HUMBLE MESSAGE TO THE SULTAN IS THIS THAT BY ALLOWING THE WORLD TO USE THE PHOTOS OF PHOTO GALLERY HE IN FACT EARNED THE GRATITUDE OF ALL OF US. THE SITE IS SIMPLY MARVELOUS AND THE WORKMANSHIP AND ATTENTION PAID TO THE THE GREAT MOSQUES IS UNMATCHED.
I AGAIN PROFUSELY THANK THE H.E.THE SULTAN FOR ALL THIS AND HOPE FOR MORE OF IT IN FUTURE.

I have been trying to gather for informations regarding Brunei and I wanted to see how Brunei looks like since my son is going on a trip there with his school. It was such a disappoinement. I was about to give up when I happen to "bump" into your site. GREAT JOB here. Now, at least, I know how it looks like.

Enjoyed your photos, especially of the new mosque that was being built when we lived in Brunei. Terry Taylor, Duncan, B.C. Canada

Brilliant photos, thank you for sharing them. Used one to illustrate an article in our local Parish Magazine, following a talk to the Women's Institute by a former governess to the Sultan's children. - Chris Smith
