Our first stop is Istana Seri Menanti. The building itself is made out of wood and attached together without the use of any single nails. A beautiful landscape to enter the palace and a long walk from the gate to the main entrance. The museum contains a lot of information on the history and culture.

Although it is not open for the public, we can still view this fascinating architecture from the outside.

3

If you happen to be a person who loves Mother Nature, this is the place to visit. The Ulu Bendul Recreational Park is a place where you can relax yourself along with your family while listening to the breeze of the wind.

4

If you are up for it, challenge yourself and visit the famous Centipede Temple in Seremban. Officially called the Sze Koon Temple, it is located way up the hill and you need to take a long walk before you reach the top. The locals gave it the nickname Centipede Temple because there are various species of centipedes outside the temple that you can come across.

That is not all – from the hilltop you get a view of the entire town, so remember to take your camera with you. Get ready to climb more than 260 steps to reach the top because you don’t want to miss the panoramic view. The good thing is, you will come across unique statues on the way up. Among them are Taoist and Buddhist deities as well as giant centipede statues.

5

Also known as Seremban Square is such an iconic landmark of the town. Every year, tourists and locals come to the square just to take some pictures. Located in the heart of Seremban town centre, it is one of the popular spots to explore and linger. At night, the square will be lit by beautiful decorative lights and you can finally escape the sweltering heat of the day.

6

This Catholic church founded by French missionaries. In the mid 1800s, French priests based in Kuala Lumpur would visit their flock in Malacca once every two months to receive confession. The priests used to break the journey, which was by bullock cart, in Seremban where they would perform services in an attap hut. These regular visitations may account for the Church's name. Later a proper church was built and the current building dates from 1899 with newer additions in 1935
