The Colours of Batu Cave

As you take your first steps into the area, you will be blown away by the stunning surroundings and ambience of the cave. Painted with vibrant shades of red, yellow, blue and green, the steps leading up to the cave are certainly not hard to miss. As you embark on your journey to the cave on these steps, you will be able to catch a glimpse of the breathtaking scenery of trees and greenery that encompass the area.

Despite the 272 steps that you may need to climb in order to reach the main cave, Batu Caves offers every bit of beauty from its entrance right up to the top, where the temple is located that makes the effort truly worth your while.

Located in Gombak, Selangor, Batu Caves is easily accessible via public transportation. Basking in the beauty of the cave, you will get to enjoy everything from the authentic beauty of its surrounding limestones to the impressive architecture of the temple and its statues

A note of caution, be prepared to encounter troops of monkeys as you enter the area. From the foot of the stairs all the way to the entrance of the temple, monkeys may be seen lined up or scampering around the grounds. Located right in front of the temple, guests are also more than welcome to participate in the bird-feeding activity planned out by the locals.

It is a truly spectacular sight and well worth the trek up those colourful steps!
