Breezing On A Malayan Float - Negri Sembilan

This is a state that we always pass through but hardly ever stop at and to be honest, we only stopped by to spend a night so that I could properly say that I had been to the capital, Seremban. Wikitravel states that it is supposed to be a hotbed of Minangkabau culture and architecture but truth be told, we did not have opportunity to see much of that in Seremban. There is also a famous beach stretch at Port Dickson but I haven't been there since I was 12.

If anything, Negri Sembilan was one of the poorer states famous for its cheap and good food. However, ever since the road and expressway network improved, and ever since the KTM Kommuter, a nodal rail network around KL hooked up to Seremban, it has become rather more prosperous. The food is still good though,,,


Seremban is also, I believe, particularly famous for Siew Pau....





This is an aerial view of Seremban....


And this is its central market. It is large...
