Istana Lama Seri Menanti, Masjid Diraja Tuanku Munawir, and Makam Diraja Seri Menanti, Negeri Sembilan


This is another old palace that we visited in Negeri Sembilan. This is the only palace that is still in its original shape and condition. Though it is nicer than the previous Istana Ampang, I still prefer a smaller one. Takut hantu! Hahaha! Eh, seriously, the feeling of what you see at the outside isn't the same with what you see in the inside. It was quite spooky inside, especially when you were walking alone, looking at all those old and antique items. You must visit this place, to experience it. (Note : Read here for history.)

Ok, time to appreciate the view. Still with color, sepia, black and white mode!

Enjoy!

hqhahaha istana ni memang pernah pegi, itupun pegi time raya sebab kebetulan beraya kat pilah.. hahaha..

yapedaaa kan orang pagi raya pi beraya, kito poie melawat istana di pagi raya..

tapi time pegi tu mmg masa tu kebetulan ada kerabat sultan datang menyinggah.

Agaknya memang kewajipan derang kot datang melawat time raya hahaa..
