Tampin

A small Malaysian town at the southern tip of the Titiwangsa Mountains — the longest mountain range on the peninsula — Tampin sits on the state border between Negeri Sembilan and Malacca, with the boundary running through the centre of town and marked by traffic lights. A compact centre with cafés and restaurants makes it a practical stop, and Malacca City, with its UNESCO-listed heritage, lies a short drive to the southeast.
