The Batu Caves are possibly one of the biggest tourist attractions in the city, well 11kms from the city to be exact. Attracting tourists and locals alike, this massive limestone hill has three caves, with many statues and Hindu idols decorating the insides of these caves. A festival that takes place at the end of January known as Thaipusam attracts a large number of devotees to form a procession. This celebration begins at the Sri Mariamman temple and makes it way down to the Batu Caves the next day. Be a part of this festival and its celebrations for a true taste of Malaysian culture.
