At first and second glance, Brunei doesn’t seem to have much to shop for. Sure, it has its shopping areas – Serusop, Kiulap, and of course Gadong, but not much to offer in terms of unique products and brands. However, if you take the time out and explore these shopping areas, you might stumble upon some interesting finds.
