Activity itinerary

Batik Boutique

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Your guide welcomes you inside the lobby at your booked accommodation in city centre Kuala Lumpur. Located approximately 11 kilometres north of Kuala Lumpur along the Sungai Batu, the comfortable ride leaves the modern city live quickly aside. Before ascending up to the Batu Caves, a stop is included at Malaysian institutions of cultural value. Batik is still found in official dress uniforms, evening and wedding gowns and worn as daily attire by many Malaysians. The cultural value of batik-painted fabric is often overshadowed by its artistic impressions yet is a deeply rooted part of preserved handicraft.

Batu Caves

  • 1h 30m
Dooming up from afar, and signalling the entrance of the Batu Caves is the gilded Murugan statue, a 42-metre tall guardian and etched in the record books as the world’s tallest Lord Murugan statue. The way up to one of the holiest Hindu pilgrimage site is taking a 272-steps counting climb upwards into the sacred centre of the caves. The origins of the Batu Caves date back to around 400 million years ago when natural elements carved out the three different caves. Each of the caves has a various paintings, statues and religious shrines for devout Hindus. Following in the footsteps of the guide, visitors will learn about the importance of the Batu Caves, its history and how the Batu Caves turn into a crowd of faithful during the festival of Thaipusam. At the end of this half day tour, you will be comfortably brought back to your Kuala Lumpur hotel by your guide.
