Major languages spoken in the city are (Malay) (the national language) and Tamil, Cantonese (especially by the elder generation), Mandarin (spoken more by the younger generation)

Seremban is seldom regarded as a main tourist attraction. It is located between Melaka (70 kilometers south) and Kuala Lumpur (60 kilometers north).

It is also accessible by major highways. The main highway is the North-South Expressway (NSE/PLUS). The nearest exit is no. 218 (Seremban). Seremban is roughly 3 hours' drive (non-stop)- 265km from Johor Bahru and 45 minutes from Kuala Lumpur, using the NSE.

Seremban is on the main railway line linking Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru. The railway station is opposite the Seremban Parade on Jalan Antah. It is operated by the KTM.

How to get around in Seremban

By car

Driving around Seremban is quite tough during the day with constant streams of busy traffic, but not as bad as Kuala Lumpur or Penang Island due its volume. Road traffic volume increases during the weekends and public holidays as people who work in nearby major cities return. Traffic gets less busy away from the Seremban and Port Dickson toll plazas (towards Seremban 2)and Lake Gardens (Taman Tasik). Roads that should be avoided during peak hour include Jalan Tuanku Antah (primary street to Senawang), Jalan Rasah (primary street to Port Dickson toll plaza), Jalan Sungai Ujong (primary street to Seremban toll plaza) as well as the main downtown itself.

Halal Friendly Walking Tours in Seremban

Seremban is, to a certain extent, pedestrian unfriendly, due to a lack of pedestrian crossings and designated pedestrian paths especially in the Seremban town. There are also few facilities for the disabled. Going on foot is an unpopular means of getting around in Seremban.

How to travel around Seremban on a bicycle ?

For similar reasons, cycling is also an unpopular means of getting around. Cycling is uncomfortable can be dangerous due to the narrow road lanes. Riding bicycles is only recommended for recreational purposes. But neither of the main parks in Seremban and the Lake Gardens (in front of State Assembly building) or the City Park (behind the fire station in Seremban 2), cater to cyclists.

Best things to do in Seremban

1. Enjoy a walk at Seremban's Lake Gardens especially during sunset. The A&W fastfood restaurant is also located by the side of the Lake, to offer great lakeside view. The Lake Gardens is a favourite park for joggers and anglers alike. Well maintained pathways around the lake makes strolls a leisure. Located nearby the lake is the recreational forest in which nature lovers can enjoy the biodiversity it has to offer. Seremban is not a major tourist attraction but stopping a night at Seremban before a departure flight from KLIA is enjoyable.
