Fun things to do in Negeri Sembilan

Port Dickson is very popular seaside resort for local tourist and families for a weekend at the beach from Kuala Lumpur and neighboring areas.

The beach is not the cleanest in the world but nobody seems to care. There are many seaside stalls selling food, drinks, inflatables for swimming. Can be fun for beach activities like kicking the ball, throwing frisbees or building sand castles.

I found the journey from Muar to Port Dickson quite torturing to drive and so better to get here from Seremban.

Can be a day trip but better to stay overnight, swim in the resort pool and eat at an expensive seafood restaurant.

Nilai Town is a day trip from Kuala Lumpur, about 30 minutes if there is no massive traffic jam.

In Nilai, there is popular Nilai whole sale center with selling household products, furniture, artificial flowers and miscellaneous items at low cost price. The stalls are arranged in grid lines and air conditioned for shopping comfort.

Nilai is also home to several universities and colleges.

There is also a famous Chinese cemetry, Nilai Memorial, that affluent people who can afford bury their beloved ones. This place was filmed in several local movies and have even become a local tourist destination. So check you it out when you are still alive.

Claimed to be the tallest single drop fall in Malaysia of approximately 350 feet high, this is a must see when you're there. There's a small pool at the bottom where you can have a dip and have back 'massaged'. The view is spectacular and a perfect place to leave all your troubles behind.

After the river trekking you'll come to the river canyon called Jeram Berungut by the locals. This place is totally secluded, which is a good thing. Everything there is totally 'untouched'.

At the end of this is a fall waterfall and current there is quite strong. If you're a strong swimmer you can reach it and be rewarded by strong waters splasing on your back. Very therapeutic.

I didn't get any pics there because my camera is not waterproof.

Port Dickson has one of the longest beaches in Malaysia, offering holiday makers ample room to frolic and have fun in the sun. With 18km of beachfront, you can stop anywhere along its coastal road and enjoy sandy beaches lined with tall casuarinas trees, coconut palms and the spreading branches of Banyan trees.

A half hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur, you can plunge headlong into a day of fun-filled water sports, such as canoeing, snorkeling, water skiing and windsurfing.

Seremban is an easy quick exit from the PLUS highway.

Found the traffic in town to be slow with a lot of traffic lights.

Easy to locate a big food court in the center of town. Typical Malaysian state capital.

The Royal Museum of Sri Menanti is one of the major attractions in Negeri Sembilan. Due to its difficult route access to Sri Menanti, some beach destinations had somehow overshadowed the full potential of Sri Menanti.

Sri Menanti not just built entirely with solid wood, but it is also the only big palace architected without the usage of a single metal nails.

The building was built entirely woods interlocked and wood pegs to hold the building in place and survive many years of administration purposes.
