Cozy Cafe in The Middle of Nilai Old Town
#foodies #deliciousfood #vianasjourney
🌟 My personal favourite;
1. Coconut Matcha; Love the unique combination of matcha and coconut water. It was Rm19 a glass, slightly pricey but it was an interesting experience.
2. Mantau with buttermilk gravy; Gravy was a bit watery but it was so well made. It was a bit creamy and slightly spicy, I love the balanced taste.
🌟 Vibes and setting; super cozy setting, no loud music blasted inside the cafe, not too crowded, vintage technology mainly used for decorations.
🌟 Price wise; for some dishes or drinks, it tend to be a bit pricey but the food was to my liking so I can not complain much. I am someone who do not mind spending on food that I like.

Warung Terlolap Mato; One of Best Eatery in Nilai
#foodies #vianasjourney #deliciousfood
🌟 My personal favourite;
1. Keli Salai Lemok Cili Api (specialty food of Negeri Sembilan) - smoked catfish prepared with creamy, flavourful & spicy combination of turmeric, coconut milk and few other local herbs.
2. Cendol pulut; one of Malaysian’s traditional sweet & cold dessert - enriched with droplets of green rice flour jelly, coconut milk & palm sugar syrup.
🌟 Vibes & concept; green garden with outdoor setting. Although it can be a bit warm but fan is available to reduce the heat. Warung (restaurant) located in a quite ‘abandoned’ looking area but once you get inside, it look different compared to what you see outside. This warung specialised in kampung/ traditional food.
🌟 Parking; no specific parking available for customers but everyone seems to just park under the tree in front of the restaurant.
🌟Price wise; for this such a deluxe taste, I can not believe they only charged Rm37.50 for that whole food I have in my picture. Absolutely recommend to others.

The Authentic Taste of Negeri Sembilan
#foodies #vianasjourney #visitmalaysia
🌟 Restaurant concept & vibes; Peaceful kampung (village) garden setting. Has outdoor setting.
🌟 My personal favourite; Ikan patin (silver catfish) gulai lemak tempoyak (coconut milk gravy with turmeric, bird’s eye chili & fermented durian). Gravy is medium thick, creamy, and spicy, just the way I like it. The fermented durian is not too overpowering. Superb 👌🏻
🌟 Price-wise; For those food above include two drinks, I only paid Rm54, the taste worth it. Definitely coming back.
🌟 Fun fact; Gordon Ramsay was here for his travelogue foodie programme called ‘The Great Escape’.
🌟 Truly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic Negeri Sembilan’s dishes.

Looking for a good hiking place for easy to medium hike, do consider this Melati Hill which located in Nilai. It mostly known with four trails which is rope, monkey, cobra and mosquito hill.

The restaurant takes pride in preserving the rich culinary heritage of Malaysia, offering an array of dishes that showcase the diverse flavors of the region.

Bukit Melati Nilai Negeri Sembilan 👍🏻✨
It's a nice hill to have a short hike. Well-kept place, very clean path, I rate five star for cleanliness. This hill is surrounded by housing area. Visitors can park along the side road. It has multiple loop of trails with variable trail intensity. You can choose the trail which suits your fitness level. 😋
There are total six spots that is Mosquito Hill, Cobra Hill, Rope Hill, Monkey Hill, Eagle Hill, Centipede Hill. The trail paths are very well maintained and it's very suitable for beginners. 👣
Food and fruit vendors are found at the foot of the hill where you start and end your hike. I recommend to go up early in the morning to see the sunrise at the top hill! What a precious moment especially together with loved ones or friends. 👀❤️

The Izz
Hey fam—just landed in Wuxi and WOW, this city totally blew my mind! 🤩 From those ethereal gardens to epic lake views, it’s a vibe you seriously don’t want to miss.
Start your adventure at Liyuan Garden (Address: No.70, Liyuan Road, Binhu District, Wuxi; Opening hours: 7:30am-5:30pm). This place legit looks like it’s straight out of a Chinese drama—think ancient pavilions, dreamy bridges, and reflections that make your Insta feed pop. We spent hours just wandering and soaking up all those tranquil water scenes. Sooo zen!
Next stop, take a chill stroll by Taihu Lake (Address: Taihu Lake Scenic Area, Binhu District, Wuxi; Open 24/7). The walking paths are so chill and family-friendly, and if you time it right, sunset here is PURE MAGIC 🌅✨ Perfect spot for a group selfie or just to watch the world go by.
Hungry yet? Hit up Nanchan Temple Market Street (Address: No. 32 Xiangqian Street, Liangxi District, Wuxi; Opening hours: 10am-10pm). The street food is on another level—juicy xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and crispy fried dough twists. My taste buds were LIVING. Don’t miss the temple itself, it’s over 1,000 years old and the vibes are spiritual AF.
Pro tip: Book your tickets and hotels easily on trip.com for all these hotspots. It’ll save you time and get you the best deals, trust me.
Wuxi isn’t just scenic—it’s full-on magical for both chill travelers and adventure junkies. Can’t wait to come back!

Nilai steal! 300+ for a 2-bedroom that fits 6 people is amazing!
Can't believe Youth City Residence Family Suite offers such great value! Perfect for friends traveling together, it's a super deal!
1️⃣ Convenient location ✨ Close to AEON Mall with complete nearby amenities. Easy for travel and shopping. Good security service. The apartment is clean and cozy.
2️⃣ Great value 💰 Total price just 300+, fits up to 6 people, so it’s only a few dozen dollars per person! Cheaper than staying at three budget hotels, plus free parking and pool access, saving a lot of hidden costs.
3️⃣ Tip 💡 If you stay in Tower A, parking and pool are in Towers B and C, which are a bit farther. Just plan ahead.
Friends traveling to Nilai, book now—there’s really no competitor at this price!
