Itinerary
Batu Caves is a limestone hill, which has a series of caves and cave temples, located in Gombak district, 13 kilometres (8 miles) north of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It takes its name from the Sungai Batu or Batu River, which flows past the hill. Batu Caves is also the name of the nearby village. Batu Caves is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India, dedicated to Lord Murugan. It is the focal point of Hindu festival of Thaipusam in Malaysia. It is also known as the 10th Caves or Hill for Lord Muruga as it is one of the ten most important shrines in India and Malaysia. The Lord Murugan statue at the foot of Batu Caves is the second tallest Hindu deity statue in the world with a heroic height of 42.7 metres (140 ft.). The limestone forming Batu Caves is said to be around 400 million years old.
East Coast Batik which established in 1974 is one of the oldest batik and handicrafts centre in Klang Valley. It's located in the Gombak district which is just a throw stone away from the Batu Caves. Visit the gallery and you'd learn that batik is not simply a cloth with an elaborate piece of design. This is the place you need to visit if you are looking forward to enjoy a holistic experience in Malaysian batik and handicrafts.
