Bandar Seri Bagawan

by seagoingJLW - last update: Sep 26, 2002

Capital of Brunei

Bandar Seri Bagawan
The capital city of Bandar Seri Bagawan is very interesting and very different from other places. In addition to his own home, the Sultan has two other palaces--- one for each wife.

He is extremely wealthy due to OIL. He offered his subjects modern housing, but they turned him down. The building you see through the arch is the library.
