Malaysia Batu Cave

Batu Caves is a limestone hill, which has a series of caves and cave temples, located in Gombak district, north of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It takes its name from the Sungai Batu or Batu River, which flows past the hill. I heard that a good news for tourism that a new RM515mil KTM Komuter rail extension from Sentul to Batu Caves is expected to be completed in May 2009. The admission fee to enter here is free. Batu cave opens everyday from 6am to 9 pm. You also can see the whole view of Kuala Lumpur City from here. This is one of the holiest Hindu shrines in Malaysia and one of the most popular tourist attractions.At your arrival you will be greeted by lots of cute monkeys. They demand for foods such as peanuts and banana's, which tourists can buy in several shop, before start to climb up to the caves. Tourists have to climb around 200 steps more. It's tired enough honestly.Below the Temple Cave is the Dark Cave, with its amazing rock formations and a number of animals found nowhere else.
