If you are living in Brunei you should drop by the capital during this festival time as this is one of those time where the capital is very lively.

As His Majesty birthday is nearer, a lot of beautiful night light (or what the Malay call it cucul) are install in the capital. I was in the capital on 11th July 2011 taking picture of the place and if you planning to go and take some shot then my advice is don’t go there late as the light will start to close at 10.45PM like that.

So ok here are some of the shot i took yesterday.

here is the roof top of Ministry Of Home Affair AKA MOHA.

Hutan Simpanan Berakas

Hutan Simpanan Berakas or as you say it in English Berakas reserve forest is located at brunei muara – tutong highway some where between the berakas trafic light and the UBD. it is easy to spotted the place as at the roadside there you can see some fake large plant.

Despite the name reserve forest, it is not all forest to see inside as at the end of road there is a beach and there are even some hut with a fireplace to do your BBQ as you can see in the picture below.
