Tutong Essentials

Tutong District showcases Brunei's ecological diversity and cultural history. Tasek Merimbun, an ASEAN Heritage Park, is a unique S-shaped black water lake surrounded by peat swamp forest. Along the coast, Seri Kenangan Beach sits on a narrow spit between the Tutong River and the South China Sea. Cultural heritage is preserved at Sungai Basong Recreational Park, which features a village with traditional houses representing five local ethnic groups. For local commerce, the town's markets offer traditional Malay snacks, fresh produce, and regional handicrafts.
