Water buffaloes in action.

Think Limbang and festivals and Pesta Babulang comes to mind.

Pesta Babulang is a festival significant to the Bisaya community in Batu Danu, Limbang.  Organized by the Bisaya Association, this annual event is a means to promote tourism for Limbang.

The highlight of the festival is the buffalo race involving teams from Limbang, Sabah and Brunei trying to outrace each other, riding on bare buffalo back along with other activities such as cultural performances, cooking contest, beauty pageant, handicrafts exhibition and lucky draw.
