TUTONG DISTRICT
Of Hidden Lakes and Lush Flora
Tutong’s beauty lies in its serenity. With its charming town surrounded by small hills and beautiful black water lakes. The waters almost resemble tea, stained a dark hue due to the release of tannins from surrounding vegetation. Spend time in the town and enjoy popular cuisine such as Rojak and Pulut Panggang. There is even a lively market every Thursday morning, where you can find local handicrafts, food and fresh produce.
We suggest you take your time to really take in what Tutong has to offer. Slow down and see a unique kind of beauty that lies beyond the beaten path.
