Limbang, a town with an isolated and intriguing atmosphere, awaits travelers journeying between Sabah and Sarawak. While Limbang may not offer an extensive list of attractions, it serves as the start or end point of the Headhunter's Trail to or from Mulu National Park. Geographically, Limbang is a peculiar place, sandwiched between two parts of Brunei. This unique situation arose in 1890 when the White Rajahs of Sarawak obtained the Limbang district from the Sultan of Brunei. To this day, the Sultanate maintains a territorial claim over Limbang. Due to the undeveloped interior of the district, transportation links between Limbang and the rest of Sarawak often pass through Brunei. Limbang is a cultural melting pot, boasting a rich diversity of Malay, Kedayan, Chinese, Iban, and various Orang Ulu ethnic groups such as Lun Bawang, Bisaya, Murut, Kelabit, and Penan. In fact, Limbang has one of the highest concentrations of Orang Ulu people in Sarawak. Explore the unique blend of cultures and experience the charm of this distinctive part of Sarawak.
