“Batu Caves: A Must-Visit Temple with Stunning Rainbow Stairs!”

#favouriteitinerary The Batu Caves in Malaysia are a famous Hindu pilgrimage site, known for their stunning rainbow-colored staircase leading up to the main temple cave. Located just outside Kuala Lumpur, the caves are dedicated to Lord Murugan, whose towering golden statue stands majestically at the entrance. The 272 steps, once plain, were vibrantly painted in 2018, creating a breathtaking contrast against the limestone cliffs and lush greenery. This transformation made the site even more iconic, drawing visitors from around the world for its spiritual significance and Instagram-worthy beauty. This is a must-visit Hindu temple in the city!
