Seremban, State capital in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia

This inland city of 700,000 residents sits within the Linggi River valley at the western edge of the Titiwangsa Mountains, 60 kilometers south of Kuala Lumpur.

The settlement originated in the 1840s as a tin mining town named Sungei Ujong before expanding significantly after additional ore discoveries in the Rasah area during the 1870s.

The city exhibits strong Minangkabau architectural influences through its buildings with distinctive roof designs that mirror buffalo horns, reflecting the regional heritage.

Seremban functions as an agricultural center with terrain suited for rubber and palm oil production, while maintaining connections to major transportation networks.

The State Museum, established in 1953, features traditional construction methods without nails, following architectural techniques from Sumatra.
