Photographer's Note
The information below was taken from Borneo .com
"The Jame'Asr Hassanil Bolkiah mosque is the largest in Brunei and was built for the 25th anniversary of the sultan's reign. Its 24-carat golden dome gleams in the Brunei sunshine as do its blue and white tiled minarets topped with golden domes. The mosque sits in a park-like setting with water fountains and well-tended lawns and flower gardens. As in all mosques, shoes and personal belongings are left at the desk on entering and ladies must put on the simple Muslim-style black robes furnished by the staff to be worn during the duration of the visit."
