Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia>, Aug 31, 2009
It is located 13km north from KL and quite easy to access by bus.
It is free and quite unique, and you can figure that out at the first sight of the giant statue!
If you cannot climb stairs, forget it. There are 272 steps to go to the cave, and with the heat it was quite exhausting. The best attraction on the way were funny monkeys going all around, not scared of people are they are very use to see them in this place which is very touristic and very important for Hindus. It was not too crowded though.
Once inside, it is a peculiar atmosphere. I would not say Batu Caves is a must-see in your life, but if you are around, it is unique and I do not think there is any other place like that, so it can be worth a visit!
