Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei - Brunei River (Sungai Brunei) Boat Tour HD (2015)
The Brunei River is a river which flows through Brunei and empties into Brunei Bay towards the North-east direction. The Istana Nurul Iman, the official residence of the Sultan of Brunei, stands on its banks. The Brunei River is the shortest major river in Brunei Darussalam. Brunei Darussalam's traditional residential areas, Kampong Ayer (Water Village), is situated on the river. Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei Darussalam, stands on its banks. The upper reaches of the river are an important source of freshwater for the western parts of the country.
Brunei has a long maritime history. The Sultans of Brunei once controlled all Borneo, plus parts of the Philippines and Indonesia. The region's thick jungle means the method of transport and communication was always via boats. This led to traditional settlements being established beside rivers and waterways. These waterways provided convenient transport through a jungle environment, and a supply of food.
In 2006 Brunei ministry's Department of Environment, Parks and Recreation (Jastre) initiated the clean-up campaign of the Brunei River. A total of $3.9 million has been allocated for the clean-up project, in addition to the $90,000 for the house-to-house waste collection.

OCTOBER 28, 2018—It's the afternoon of our first day in Bandar Seri Begawan. We just had late lunch after doing a private tour in Kuala Belait and Seria in the morning.
It's our first time in Brunei and we were told that Kampong Ayer is a must see so we made sure to visit it on our first day.
Kampong Ayer is truly interesting to say the least. We expected to see boat houses or makeshift houses because those were what we've known to associate to floating villages. We were pleasantly surprised that the houses in Kampong Ayer are neither of those. In at least one particular area the houses can actually be considered as affluent. In general, the houses are of regular working-class citizens of Brunei. There are actually several contiguous villages in Kampong Ayer, making up complete communities, with mosques, schools, clinics, police stations, etc. Most of the communities are connected by concrete or wooden bridges. Water taxis are available to bring people to farther villages or to the city center across the river.
We later learned from research that the floating villages of Kampong Ayer are the original capital of Brunei. However, it is now feared that Kampong Ayer's culture and tradition may be slowly vanishing as more and more people choose to move and live on land.
From our water taxi and while navigating around Kampong Ayer we also got a good view of some of Brunei's stupendous palaces and mosques in and around the city proper. In a way Kampong Ayer provided us with a good bird's eye view of Bandar Seri Begawan.
This is a short video presentation of our very interesting visit to the floating villages of Kampong Ayer in Bandar Seri Begawan. Enjoy watching.
