Limbang, a peaceful town in the
northern region in Sarawak, is located between the two halves of Brunei. Limbang is a "passer-by" town for most travellers, who pass by Limbang either to go to Kota Kinabalu, Miri or Mulu. This is one of the towns I stopped by on the way during my short journey from Brunei to Kota Kinabalu.
Pengkalan Jabatan Laut Limbang
The
Milo susu or
Teh Tarik muddy Limbang River (cannot resist to relate things with food)
A thriving village with wooden houses across the Limbang River. I guess these are the residency area for the fishermen in Limbang.
Local fishing (with fishing net) at the Limbang River river bank together with his kids.
This two-storey wooden building is
Limbang Museum. The building was previously an old fort built by Rajah Charles Brooke in 1897. During the Brooke’s days, half of the ground floor was used as jail while the other half for storage purposes, whilst the upper floor housed the offices of the Resident and the District Officer and their staff.

We had a good laugh when we saw this traffic light... The
"No Traffic Light" Signboard on the
traffic light post :P

This is my first time to Limbang too.
But I can consider myself going there twice liao..
The "to-and-fro" trip.. hahahaha

I thought tempat penapisan minyak is somewhere else?
butt,

SA,
I guess I don’t mind living on top of the river for few days, but not for long period of time.
Somehow, I feel more secure living on the land.
Points to add on for the Limbang Museum. The original building (the museum) was burnt down in 1989.
It was rebuilt again on the exact site maintaining the original design and architecture.
nice......... the traffic light like that also can ahhh.... hehehe
Whats the attraction there ah? I've been tempted to visit Limbang but never did.
aiyo...me same as carcar. got no appetide for milo or teh tarik now!!
Thats a good traffic light sign, whatever works eh
kristopher,
First time I see such traffic lights ;) Wonder if such “traffic lights” are available elsewhere besides Limbang :P
cocka,
I don’t really know what are the attractions there.. We visited the Limbang Museum, had a stroll along the Limbang River, visited the Limbang Waterfront, bought some foodstuffs from the Pasar Tamu and drove around the Limbang town
winn,
Wanna go Starbucks for coffee then? Starbucks don’t serve Milo nor Teh Tarik :P
FF,
I won’t believe such “traffic light sign” exist if I didn’t see it with my own eyes earlier on :P Hahaha, seems like nothing is impossible ;)
