Kuala Belait

About

Kuala Belait, known as KB by the locals, exudes a charming small-town atmosphere, with its popular boulevard lined with cozy cafes and restaurants. Visit the Kampong Pandan Mosque, one of the country’s largest mosques, surrounded by scenic lawns, jogging paths, and a serene lake. Stop by the Menara Cendera Kenangan, a towering beacon that offers panoramic views of the Belait District, or take a wander past the Sungai Belait riverside where crocodiles and exotic birds take refuge. For history and culture enthusiasts, the Belait Museum provides insights into the district’s heritage and the discovery of the oil and gas industry, while the nearby Silver Jubilee Park offers a tranquil spot for picnics or beach visits. A stroll along Jalan pretty, adorned with colorful buildings, charming bakeries, and sidewalk plants, provides a delightful experience that leads to the Belait riverfront. Kuala Belait may be a lesser-known destination, but its simplicity, natural beauty, and cultural treasures make it a worthwhile visit.
