Culture

Historically, Negeri Sembilan has been influenced by the Minangkabaus and thus, Seremban is the centre of the Minangkabau culture in Malaysia. Minangkabaus, derived from the Malay word menang kerbau, which means "winning buffalo", are famous for their unique roof architecture which resembles buffalo horns. Many buildings in Seremban adapt this feature, such as the Seremban Municipal Council Hall, the Wisma Negeri and the State Museum.
