Beautiful Caves in Malaysia

Malaysia is one of the most famous spots for travellers who love the sand and the sea. While it’s best known for the pearl-white sand beaches of Langkawi and the majestic peak of Mount Kinabalu, the nation is also home to another exciting landscape feature that draws adventure seekers and nature lovers alike — its caves. From the world-renowned Batu Caves to the Sarawak Chamber of Gunung Mulu National Park (the largest cave chamber in the world), get in touch with your inner spelunker while exploring the magnificent caves in Malaysia. These massive networks of interconnected systems enthral tourists with stunning arrangements of limestone stalagmites and stalactites sculpted over millennia. Caves in Malaysia are also home to the most unique flora and fauna, and some are even archaeological sites. Remnants of the prehistoric era have been discovered in Malaysian caves, like the ‘Perak Man’ (Southeast Asia’s oldest, most complete human skeleton) in Gua Gunung Runtuh of Lenggong Valley, and they have managed to preserve centuries of ancient history, local culture and native wildlife within their walls. They are truly fascinating sights as the caves manage to entwine the beauty of natural marvels and the cultural heritage of their surroundings.

Here are some of the best caves to explore in Malaysia:

Batu Caves

Caves in Malaysia
Image credit: ShutterstockThese world-famous caves are located in Gombak, in the State of Selangor. One of the most iconic tourist attractions in Malaysia, Batu Caves showcases mogote topography, which is a limestone outcrop and includes a series of caves and cave temples. With over 20 caves forming part of the Batu Caves, the biggest cave, the Temple Cave or Cathedral Cave, is dedicated to Lord Murugan and is a famous pilgrimage site for Tamil Hindus. You need to be dressed appropriately to visit this cave temple. Besides it, the Dark Cave, Ramayana Cave and Cave Villa are significant sites, with tourists flocking here to see the beautiful paintings of the Ramayana Cave and Cave Villa, as well as the unique flora and fauna of the Dark Cave. The Dark Cave has two areas — one that houses rare plant species (around 269 types) and the other part of the cave that is engulfed in pitch darkness. However, the most iconic aspect of the Batu Caves is a steep flight of 272 steps that leads to the entrance of Sri Subramaniar Swamy Temple, from where you get a breathtaking view of the grand, golden statue of Lord Murugan, towering at 140 feet (around 42.6 metres), and the surrounding areas. Learn more with our detailed guide to Batu Caves. Tickets: Entry to the Cave Temple is free, but other caves, like the Ramayana Cave (RM 4.4/USD 0.95) and the Dark Cave (RM 35/USD 7), have an entrance fee. How to reach By air: Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport is 25 km away. By road: The caves are 6 km from Gombok and 17 km from Kuala Lumpur city centre.

Gunung Mulu National Park

caves in Malaysia
Image credit: ShutterstockOne of the four UNESCO Heritage Sites of Malaysia, Gunung Mulu National Park is home to some of the most stunning caves in the country. Located in Borneo Island’s Sarawak, the national park stands out for a 2,376 metre-tall sandstone structure called Gunung Mulu and other karst features sprawling across the Malaysian state. For the uninitiated, karst is a special type of landform that is created when bedrock dissolves. It is associated with soluble rock types, including limestone, gypsum and marble. Tickets: The park has curated tour packages that take people on a guided journey. These packages require you to stay for at least a night or even longer. The price of the tour packages starts from RM 500 (USD 107). How to reach: The only way to reach Gunung Mulu National Park is by flying directly to Mulu Airport, situated within the park. Miri Airport, Kuching International Airport and Kota Kinabalu International Airport have daily direct flights to Mulu Airport. The Sarawak Chamber Named the largest single cave chamber in the world by the Guinness World Records, the Sarawak Chamber is part of 295 km of explored caves in Gunung Mulu National Park. This cave stretches 600 metres in length, 415 metres in width and 80 metres in height. The only way to visit the Sarawak Chamber is through one-night camps organised by the park. However, this is an extreme adventure activity open only to people who are certified cave explorers and experienced swimmers. The cave has a volume of 12 million cubic metres and an unsupported roof of 300 metres. Clearwater Cave The park’s official website states that Gunung Mulu National Park is also home to the longest cave in Asia. Also known as Gua Air Jernih, the 107-km-long cave stands as a testament to Malaysia’s natural beauty. After navigating 200 steps through dense forest, trekkers reach the entrance of the cave, encompassing an underground river, plank walks, pathways and floating bridges. The Wind Cave is also part of the Clearwater Cave System and has beautiful stalactites, stalagmites, flow rocks, helictites and rock corals. Travellers can explore these caves through guided tours. Deer Cave Past plank walks, peat swamps, alluvial flats, an ancient burial site and limestone formations lie the Deer Cave. One of the largest cave chambers in the world, it serves as a place for deer to shelter in. This is how it got its name — the local Penan and Berawan people call it Gua Payau or Gua Rasu (which translates into Deer Cave). Several bat species can be found inside the cave, with over a million of these animals residing here. The main chamber is 174 metres wide and 122 metres high. A formation at its entrance shares a distinct similarity to the silhouette of the late US President Abraham Lincoln’s face, which can be easily spotted on guided tours. Another interesting feature of the cave is the Garden of Eden, a hole in the roof of the cave where green vegetation thrives.

However, visiting the Gua Gunung Runtuh caves is not easy, as it is not a proper tourist destination. Visitors need to get a permit and a guide from the Lenggong Archeological Museum.

5 Theme Parks Johor Bahru

Want to go for a theme park trip during the weekend or long school holiday in Malaysia with your family or friends?

But you find that flight tickets are too expensive?

 

5 Best Johor Theme Parks To Discover

1. Fanpekka Theme Park (Brand New Johor Theme Park)

Fanpekka Theme Park has recently opened its doors to the public in the AEON Tebrau City shopping mall, Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

The first Finnish conceptual theme park in Asia, Fanpekka is designed on the idea that children learn by playing.

Learning problem-solving and global communication skills are pillars of the Finnish educational curriculum, and they are pristinely integrated into the design of Fanpekka. The park is the first of its kind in Southeast Asia.

Fanpekka Johor Entrance in Aeon Mall Tebrau City

Fanpekka was designed for families, with children aged 2 to 12 specifically targeted. The play area’s convenient location within the shopping centre allows children a light-hearted respite while on an outing with the family.

The 27,500 square foot playground is divided into four main sections, each focusing on providing relaxation while nurturing the mind, body, and soul.

Tonttu, named after a Finnish fairy tale, transports children to a world of magic and mystique.

Fanpekka in Aeon Tebrau City Johor

Allowing children to go on adventures to ‘worlds’ like this one enables them cultivate a sense of self while sharing in the experience with their families.

Creating a safe environment for children to explore their imaginations while making sense of the world around them is key to the highly successful Finnish system that is implemented here.

Why is the play-based Finnish education system so successful? Experts take note of the fact that Finns place an emphasis on early childhood education and development.

Role Play Leikkimokki Area in Fanpekka at Aeon Mall Tebrau City, Johor Bahru

In their system, even the youngest children are regarded as unique and respected as individuals with different needs, desires, and, most importantly, ways of learning.

Embracing individuality gives children the experiences and tools that they need to develop innovation and social skills.

They do this through praising creativity and allowing children to figure things out in their own way and on their own time. Incorporating these ideals into Fanpekka will now give these opportunities to children visiting or living in Malaysia.

Role Play Leikkimokki Area in Fanpekka at Aeon Mall Tebrau City, Johor Bahru

The goal of Fanpekka is to provide a fun, yet educational, environment for all children and families, especially those who might not have access to outings like this otherwise.

Aeon Fantasy’s Director, Wataru Koiwa, hopes to reach out to about 6,000 families per month with the use of these new facilities. The theme park is also expected to rise above the competition due to being indoors and, as such, not at the mercy of the weather.

Fanpekka Theme Park can divide into 6 categories as listed below:

1. Lasten Ocean
