Although Batu Caves is colorful, do you know its history?
The limestone that existed on the Batu Caves 400 million years ago was formed on the mountain. In the early days, some caves were inhabited by the indigenous people of the peninsula. However, in the 1860s, Malaysian Chinese excavated the Batu Caves in order to attract birds and obtain bird droppings for fertilizer. Gradually, they added designs and developed it into a tourist area, which is widely known and formed the current "Batu Caves".
Today, the Rainbow Stairs of Batu Caves have a total of 272 steps. After reaching the top and passing through another colorful Indian-style door, you will step into the limestone cave area. The entire limestone area covers an area of ​​255 hectares, which is very magnificent.
In the limestone area, even if it is not raining, there is a wet feeling and water will drip in some places, so it is better to bring a hat.

How to get there/transportation: Since the accommodation is in KL Sentral, take the KTM (LINE1) from KL Sentral directly to Batu Caves Station, which takes about 1 hour. The most convenient way to travel in Kuala Lumpur is to use the Touch & Go card (local Octopus), which also offers transportation discounts. It can be purchased at the Railway Service Office or Touch & Go store.
