The Kuala Belalong
Mini Park is one of the most famous tourist
attractions in Temburong district. Located about
one kilometer from Bangar (near the Temburong
Civic Centre Padang), this tourist area was
officially opened on the 22nd July in
1993 by His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei on his
47th birthday and Bangar is also the
centre of the Temburong district. The main
appeal seen here at Kuala Belalong Mini Park are
its unique gardens which
incorporate a number of attractions depicting
the renowned Kuala Belalong Field Studies
Centre.
Some of the
interesting features seen here at this Kuala
Belalong Park are a specially
designed pond which is used for
remote-controlled boat racing and six pondoks,
which are actually small huts, of similar design
to those seen at the Kuala Belalong Field
Studies Centre. Seen inside three pondoks are
rare pictorial records of His Majesty's visit to
this district and the colorful activities of the
local people here while the other three pondoks
showcases findings made at the Kuala Belalong
Field Studies Centre. Visitors coming here will
find this place of interest in Temburong quite
different to the other parks seen at this
district and this place also acts as an
substitute for those who find the Kuala Belalong
Field Studies Centre too remote and too far to
venture.
