Interesting palaces & lovely grounds. Enjoying the serene and rustic landscape Breathing in the fresh air of the hills Refreshing the eyes gazing at the surround hills Pondering the history of this 100+ year old Sleepy town Sharing knowledge of cultivating fruit trees & vegetables with friendly Gardener of the Royal palace

Istana Seri Menanti located at Kuala Pilah. It’s easy to access and easy to find. You can go in the palace for free entry. You can learn and get to know the history behind the palace itself and Negeri Sembilan. There are very stiff stair to go up to get the full view of the overall ambiance.I just like ambience it is very calm and peaceful.

Although it is rundown and lack of any beautification project but the palace is beautiful and authentic.kinda wish more colourful trees or flowers surrounding the palace. Maybe any water feature or fountains?Toilet is clean.parking is enough off season. Nearby got small lake, hotel and im guessing royal tomb?

Beautiful old palace of Seri Menanti located in the Royal Town of Seri Menanti. Entrance is free. There were some traditional games available at the palace's compound, and some of them required very minimum fee to play (RM1 for congkak). Inside the palace, there were arts display from local talents, and some of them were available for purchase. If you need a drink, there was a coffee shop underneath the palace, and a souvenir shop. Overall a great place to hangout, considering the free entrance.

Went there with my friend during Keputeraan Yamtuan last month. Had a really great great time there due to the festival. The palace itself is so magnificent. There’s an exhibition in the palace. We were able to climb up to the forth level and the view from there was wow so beautiful. Be careful of the steep stairs. Just follow the precautions written there. They also provide traditional clothes to be tried on with minimum surcharges. Souvenir shop also available and open. Surrounding area was breathtaking. This place also had other small palace worth going. Noted that there’s no entrance fee when we visited. Maybe due to the Keputeraan, but better ask the person in charge there.

It's a old building and nice to watch. Got 3 floors, and the highest floor little bit challenge to walk up, almost 90 degree up. No entrance fees needed.

It's a big wooden Palace up to 4 storeys all of which you can access from inside. A steep stairs leads all the way up. Some of the levels are not lit but you could just flip the lights on. Entrance is free and has lots of parking nearby. Good to stop by and look around

First of all, I would like to compliment the architecture of Minangkabau, especially the ones in N.Sembilan. I love to drive around the countryside of N.Sembilan, and in many occasions, I would stop to take pictures of the unique houses around the area. The Istana Seri Menanti is an excellent visit because it allows you to experience in real life the feeling of living in such a house. The museum ground also features a smaller house at the site. After all, the Istana is a palace. Ordinary people will not own such a large house. Therefore, the smaller place beside the Istana gives you a good sample to experience living in such a beautiful design. However, it would be great to see better preservation done on the Istana. Some of the roofing areas are severely aged. Some lighting might improve some of the darker corners. Also, if an illustration is drawn for explaining the different usage and functions of each room, it will significantly enhance the experience. I hope one day, some developer will develop houses like this in a new "Taman" setting. I don't mind living in one.
