Temburong District, Administrative district in eastern Brunei.

Temburong District spans 1,306 square kilometers of land, featuring dense rainforest areas and the prominent Bukit Pagon mountain reaching 1,850 meters in elevation.

The district formation occurred in 1890 when Sarawak annexed the Limbang River area, creating this separate territory from mainland Brunei.

The population of 9,444 residents maintains traditional practices through five administrative divisions called mukims, each governed by a local Penghulu leader.

The Sultan Haji Omar Ali Saifuddien Bridge connects Temburong to mainland Brunei, reducing travel time for residents and visitors crossing the Malaysian territory.

The district contains extensive gravel reserves that supply construction materials, while its prawn farms along Temburong River contribute to local aquaculture production.
