  Wow—a very rare look into what foreign dignitaries will give as gifts to the sultan as artistic representations of their country. BE HERE

  Very informative history about Brunei's monarchy. It's a big museum and has a lot of content about the current His Majesty. It can get a bit tiresome halfway through as there can be unnecessary (irrelevant) information but overall it helps to understand how much the people of Brunei admire and love their Sultan. Also, it's a great way to get out of the tropical weather. A nice reprieve! Please be aware that you will not be able to take photos unless you're in the main open area. You will also have to take your shoes off prior entering the building. And they will provide free lockers for your bags too.

  The outer building itself is beautiful, with a wide dome in the Islamic style of architecture. There were a couple of misplaced signs which said "Entry, main entrance) pointing to sealed doors, the actual entrance has a shoe rack and a light up sign which says welcome over it. Shoes are to be removed on arrival. On entry to the right there is a reception where name and nationality are registered in exchange for a locker key to put away phones and cameras (no photos allowed on entry and in the inner museum). The museum itself begins with a history of the current sultan and continues on to some royal items and gifts from other nations or important persons/organisations. There is a gift shop at the end with some locally made items, magnets and other such paraphernalia. At this stage pictures of the lobby may be take.

  you can see the all royal artifacts here. Prohibited to take your phone to the gallery, but you can take a lot of picture inside the main hall. You can see the history of Brunei. The service was good, the guide also speak English well.

  Upon entering the place, you need to take off you shoes. You are only allowed to take photos in the lobby. When entering the museum (where the gifts are located), you will be requested to leave your things in a locker or leave it at the counter (if your things are quite big). Taking photos inside the museum are not allowed. The display inside were beautiful. But then I think it’s much better if they have guides around the place so that they could share a little about Brunei’s history.
