msyumsy @msyumsy (5) • Philippines 21 Apr 07

If you had not been to Brunei Darussalam and have plans for a holiday there, don't miss to visit Jerudong Park. They say the best things in life are free, and Jerudong Park was open for free when I first went there.

is it still free today

tell us about your visit too

hazelle Well I certainly do not have any plans to go to Brunei but in the unlikely case that I happen to be there I will keep Jerudong Park in mind.
