What our travelers think about their stay
15 kimometres north of Kuala Lumpur, the Batu Caves are an absolute must-see, not just for the beautiful temple and cave, but also for all the monkeys that live there.
My suggestion
Be ready for a bit of exercise because you have to climb 272 steps to get to the cave. And watch out for the monkeys who like to steal things! Go there early in the morning, before the tourists arrive.
The Batu Caves are the largest Hindu centre in Malaysia.
My suggestion
Any one can enter the biggest of the Batu Caves , the only thing is you must keep your knees and shoulders covered. It is best to bring along a large shawl, if not, someone at the entrance has some available for hire.
Located on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, Batu Caves shelter little cave-dwelling temples and a huge statue of the God Murugan.
My suggestion
Come and visit Batu Caves during Thaipusam and attend the biggest Hindu gathering of the country.
