Hello Malaysia!
Long time no see you! Now, I'm back again with my hubby for short travelling..hehe..
Because we just have 2D1N here, so, I will tell you about our busy schedule in Malaysia haha..
After we arrived at KLIA, we took Bus to KL central. Actually our plan is we want to go to Genting Highlands. But the bus schedule is in the afternoon. So, we changed our plan, we go to Batu caves first.

Because we are hungry, we took a lunch  at subway and tried he famous Kitkat ice cream.


After we have lunch, we took commuter to Batu Caves from KL sentral.
after 30-45 minutes we arrived at Batu Caves.

Batu Caves is easily reached by commuter train at Batu Caves Komuter station, costing RM 2.6 for a one-way journey from KL Sentral. Batu Caves may also be reached by bus 11/11d from Bangkok Bank Terminus (Near to Puduraya Terminus) or bus U6 from Titiwangsa.Batu Caves is also easily reached by travelling in car.


The cave is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India, and is dedicated to Lord Murugan. It is the focal point of Hindu festival of Thaipusam in Malaysia.
Batu Caves, one of Kuala Lumpur’s most frequented tourist attractions, is a limestone hill comprising three major caves and a number of smaller ones. Located approximately 11 kilometres to the north of Kuala Lumpur, this 100-year-old temple features idols and statues erected inside the main caves and around it. Incorporated with interior limestone formations said to be around 400 million years old, the temple is considered an important religious landmark by Hindus.


 

Batu Caves in short also referred as 10th Caves or Hill for Lord Muruga as there are six important holy shrines in India and four more in Malaysia. The three others in Malaysia are Kallumalai Temple in Ipoh, Tanneermalai Temple in Penang and Sannasimalai Temple in Malacca.
