A short drive from the KL city will take you to the historic 100-year-old Hindu temple. The interior of the cave consists of a 400-year-old limestone formation and it is one of the most revered religious landmarks by Hindus around the world.

Couples can unwind at a Sepang hotel which is located closeby after a busy day at the circuit such as the likes of AVANI Sepang Goldcoast Resort.

Go sightseeing at 'A Famosa'

Couples who enjoy exploring the historic sites will love A Famosa - an ancient fortress found in Malacca a state in Malaysia. 'A Famosa' translates to 'The Famous' in Portuguese. The fortress was built during the Portuguese reign in the early 1500s and continued to expand over the course of that century. Although today what is left is only the entrance gatehouse, it still stands as a symbol of the city's past. In later times the Dutch and the British took possession of the city including A Famosa. The Malacca city also has some other interesting sights such as the Stadthuys and Jonker Stree, which is popular for its historical sites.

Spend time at the Sepilok rehabilitation centre

Couples that love animals need to visit the Sepilok Rehabilitation Centre. Opened in 1964 to reintegrate the lives of orphaned baby orangutans. Most of the animals in the centre were rescued from logging sites, plantations and illegal hunting. These orangutans are trained to survive in the wild and released back to their homes once they are ready. There are nearly eighty animals living free within the reserve and the centre attracts a high number of visitors throughout the year.
