Join this private Batu Caves pilgrimages tour, perfect for those who are interested in history and nature.
The Batu Caves are known for the limestone rock inside which is more than 400 million years old that is located just 8 miles away from the city of Kuala Lumpur in the Gombak district. Climb the ancient stairs leading to the entrance of the cave system (272 steps in all), to get a magnificent view of Kuala Lumpur when you reach the top. The crowning glory of the Hindu temple is the gigantic statue of Murugan standing atop the entire structure. At 140 feet, this is the second tallest statue devoted to any Hindu deity and it’s the largest statue of a deity in the world.
After this visit, you will stop at the world-renowned Royal Selangor Pewter factory and watch craftsmen perform a Malaysian-style batik painting demo. Once the tour is over, you will be dropped off back at your hotel.
