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. Explore the cave's stunning interior, filled with murals, chanting, and incense. After soaking in the spiritual ambiance, visit the nearby Ganesha Temple, where you can witness offerings and receive a blessing. Next, marvel at the towering Hanuman statue and hear fascinating tales from Hindu mythology. End your adventure with a visit to a traditional Batik Factory, where you'll watch artisans create beautiful designs and shop for unique souvenirs. Once the tour is over, you will be dropped off back at your hotel.
