Lapau
The Lapau is located in Bandar Seri Begawan, across the Royal Regalia Museum and the Brunei History Centre. It is the ceremonial hall where the royal ceremonies of Brunei are traditionally held.[1] In this place, beneath the interior's golden-domed ceiling, that the present Sultan of Brunei, Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah, was crowned on 1 August 1968. Adjoining the Lapau is the old or Parliament House. A new and bigger has just been built. Official permission is required to enter the Lapau.
