Little is known about this palace, the Istana Darussalam. This historical building is located at the edge of Bandar, hidden amongst the sleepy Kg Sumbiling Lama. This palace was the late Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin’s resident before his coronation and the birth place of His Majesty in 1946. This is also my kampung, where I grew up back in the 1980′s, my childhood playgrounds.
