Guide to visiting Kuala Klawang

Kuala Klawang (GPS: 2.93893, 102.07077) is a small town in Negri Sembilan. It serves as the administrative centre for Jelebu District. As such, it is also often called Jelebu. Located within Mukim Kuala Klawang, the town is in a forested area surrounded by a number of Malay reserve lands.

There are two sights of note in Kuala Klawang. The first is the Kuala Klawang Memorial, built by the locals in the 19th century to honour Queen Victoria. The memorial is located on a hillock and can be reached by a flight of steps. From the top, you can get a good view of the town below. If you are coming from Seremban, you will pass the other attraction, Jeram Toi Waterfall.

Kuala Klawang itself is a small town. Many of the civic buildings spot the distinctive Minangkabau roof structure, with its pointed roof ridges. The biggest of them all is probably the community hall, or Dewan Besar Majlis Daerah Jelebu, also called Dewan Besar D'Sury.

During our visit to Kuala Klawang, we simply walked about the town, and came upon Restoran Jelebu, which offers Malay rice. It was not bad.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
