Bandar Seri Begawan - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
Totally safe in terms of crime, but lack of sidewalks means this is not exactly a walking city; ditto on biking: not a great option for commuting, as some drivers on phones while driving and just not many bikes on road, due to heat/rain. Biking clubs exist, but it takes some prep to get out to riding areas, outside of downtown. You can run outside, but would need to finish before 8am, due to heat; some folks run in late afternoon/early evening, especially around stadium area, adjacent to embassy. - Feb 2025
