The Jame' Asr Hassanil Bolkiah
Mosque, built to commemorate the 25th
anniversary of His Majesty the Sultan's reign, is the largest and arguably
the most magnificent structure in Brunei. With its
intricately ornamented minarets and shimmering
golden domes clearly visible along the main
route into town from the airport, the Kiarong
Mosque (as it is locally known) towers over
landscaped terrain dotted with fountains. This
famous Brunei mosque, located at the Gadong area, has become one of the most famous
tourist attractions in Brunei.

8.00am to 12.00pm, 2.00pm to 3.00pm and 5.00pm to
6.00pm
The mosque is closed
to non-Muslims on Thursdays. It is open on
Saturday provided that there is no official
function the following day.
