Workation in Bandar Seri Begawan: the essentials
Water taxis still do the commuting in Bandar Seri Begawan, crossing the Brunei River to the stilt houses of Kampong Ayer, the settlement the capital grew out of. The city is small for a national capital, with around 72,000 residents within its limits, and the gold dome of the Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque dominates the centre. Evenings are quiet, since the sale of alcohol is banned in Brunei and nightlife barely exists, so night markets such as the one in Gadong take its place. Brunei International Airport is about 8 km from the centre.
