Acheter Kampung Ayer, Brunei, Asie (Brunei)

Largest community built entirely on stilts, Kampung Ayer certainly is picturesque.
Bandar Seri Begawan, capital of Brunei, is situated on the riverbanks of the Brunei. Part of it is Kampung Ayer, which is actually built on the river and which exists already for many centuries. It is the biggest area built on water in the world. Nowadays some 30,000 people live, work, shop, sleep and go to school and mosque on the water. To be able to do so, a maze of wooden walkways has been constructed connecting all houses and buildings, as well as landing sites for boats. Bridges allow for boats to cross the canals under the "streets".
