Seri Menanti Old Palace or "Istana Lama"

Seri Menanti Old Palace (Malay:Istana Lama Seri Menanti) is one of the famous landmarks in Negeri Sembilan. It is a timber palace constructed between 1902 to 1908. Today, the palace has been turned into a royal museum. This four-storey building is special because it was constructed surprisingly, without using any nails1. Hardwood rods were instead used to piece the timber together. The roof of this palace represents a buffaloes horns. The buffalo horns are widely regarded as the protective symbol of the palace.
