Batu Caves

Batu Caves is a famous Hindu cave temple and is known for being located in a limestone hill as well as its imposing 42.7m tall statue of Lord Murugan, which is also the largest in the world. 

Batu Caves is located just outside of KL, and we drove there after our day drip to Colmar Tropicale
Driving there is pretty straightforward; once within its vicinity, just follow the signs. 

Parking's available inside the compound, and yes, the narrow-looking, one-and-only main entrance can be driven through. We drove around the vicinity twice before we realised, when we saw a car driving out through that narrow main entrance, that we could drive in and park inside. -_-"

So, just drive in and park; parking is RM2 per entry, and the carpark inside is quite spacious (but note that we came on Monday, thus less crowded)

Oh, and we saw a train station just outside the Batu Caves, thus for those intending to take public transport, you could consider taking the train, since the station is conveniently located just outside. 



Beware, the steps are steep and narrow, and making things worse are the monkeys running around on the steps. So, be careful and watch your steps!
