🥾 Walking to Tamu Selera from Jubilee Hotel – A Peaceful 10-Minute Stroll in Bandar Seri Begawan 🇧🇳🌳


✨ One of the best things about staying at Jubilee Hotel in Brunei is its perfect location — close to many of Bandar Seri Begawan’s must-see sites. On our last full day, we decided to walk to Tamu Selera, a local food court that offers an authentic taste of Bruneian dishes. It was a quiet 10-minute walk that felt oddly luxurious — imagine walking in the city with barely any cars around. Brunei’s streets are so peaceful, we joked that it felt like we owned the road (LOL). 😄


🚶‍♀️ Walking Directions from Jubilee Hotel to Tamu Selera

1️⃣ Start at Jubilee Hotel
Walk out to the main road, the same direction heading to Tamu Kianggeh.

⏩ Instead of turning left (towards the market), turn right, facing Lapau & Dewan Majlis (Royal Ceremonial Hall).

2️⃣ Pass by Landmarks

Continue walking and you'll see:

  • 🏛️ Pusat Belia Youth Centre & Hostel
  • 🏨 Radisson Hotel (visible from afar)

3️⃣ Cross the Street at the Stoplight 🚦
Once near Radisson, use the pedestrian crossing with stoplights. After crossing, continue walking straight.

4️⃣ Turn Left at the Brick Wall Corner
You’ll see a long red brick wall. After this block, turn left. Keep walking until you spot the shady park filled with colorful parasols and food stalls — that's Tamu Selera!

📍Tamu Selera is a charming outdoor food court loved by locals. Go in the evening when the parasols are lit up and the stalls are lively!


🗺️ Optional Stops Along the Way:

If you have extra time, consider dropping by these nearby attractions on your way back:

  • 👑 Lapau & Dewan Majlis – the Royal Ceremonial Hall
