Perak Cave Tample
We really enjoyed this cave. It is free parking and free entry. There is free tea and chairs to sit inside the cave to enjoy the cool from the heat outside. There are different parts of the cave you can visit with multiple shrines & there is also over 300 steps up to the top for a variety of different view points over Ipoh.
Incredible cave temple. Never been to a Buddhist temple with paintings on the walls like this. So beautiful.

Perak Cave Temple
It was a fascinating experience to visit this iconic place in Perak. As soon as you step into the cave temple you will be welcomed by a cozy breeze, a sensational zephyr which blows gracefully towards you. Overall there are around 350 stair steps that you can take to reach the pinnacle of the establishment, for the information of daredevils out there. Definitely worth a visit, especially to those with their beloved family members. #mytripvlog #2023travelwish #tripblazers

Amazing and beautiful caves, also a Chinese Buddhist temple, certainly worth a visit. A climb to uphill, which is beautiful. Some murals are really good. Aside from the cave you can climb the stairs to the top of the hill to have some good views of Ipoh. 🥰✨

Temple inside the Cave
There are several temples in the Cave, and Perak Cave Temple is one of my Favourite. The location is easy to reach with car park facilities.
The ambience is very nice, soothing and beautiful. Lay on the side of the lime stone, the beautiful pond in front of the temple with a statue of Avolokitesvara is welcoming everyone to visit this temple.
The are several dogs residents in this temple and like to catch the monkeys around the temple.
The Cave is huge with big Buddha statue at the main entrance, and inside another few Buddha statues, including Avolokitesvara statue as well. Public can do donation by light the lotus flower candle or just drop into the donation box, and the guy will ring the big bell.

Most famous iPoh cave temple
Perak Tong cave temple or Perak Tong (霹雳洞) as the locals fondly call it, is a main attraction in Ipoh!
Out of more than 20 or so Ipoh cave temples, Perak Cave Temple is one of the most well-known. And many visitors make it a point to visit this temple for its marvelous architecture and hilltop views!
Perak Cave Temple sits by the side of a main road (Tasek Road) under the shadow of Gunung Tasek and is accessible from town. The temple is open every day. If you want to make the climb to the hilltop pavilion, it’s best to go early in the morning to avoid the heat.
And they do not allow anyone to climb up after 4pm!
Depending on how interesting you find the temple, you can spend 30 minutes up to an hour here!

It's located at the state capital of Perak, Ipoh. Accessible with own private vehicle.
It has an amazing entrance, lovely paintings. I was surprised by the huge statues and paintings. Surprisingly the insides on the cave is rather chilly, you can feel a cold breeze in there.
Overall there are around 350 stair steps that you can take to reach the pinnacle of the establishment, for the information of daredevils out there.
After that proceed to go for a hike. Perak cave is magnificent religious structure, with unique paintings depicting the chinese mythology. Today it is still used as a place of worthship & offers unique hiking trail atop of the cave its located. The hiking path is old & can be challenging, but a top it is met with a breathtaking beautiful city view.

Tranquil and breathtaking experience at cave!
A Buddhist temple situated within a limestone hill, be prepared to spend 1-2hours exploring majestic statues and cave art. Steps are narrow so please wear covered shoes to get to the top. Admission is free.

Perak, specifically Ipoh, is renowned for its caves, many of which have been transformed into religious temples. During my recent visit to Perak Cave, I was just as impressed as I was when I first visited at the age of 15. If you find yourself in Ipoh, don't miss the chance to experience this remarkable temple.
Highly recommended place to visit! Astonishing view everywhere, from the cave to the trekking trail. The view from the top is worth it. Stairs are really steep near the top so be really careful when climbing/descending. It took me a comfortable 1 hour to go up and down.

The Perak Cave Temple
#malaysiatrip The temple's main highlight is the enormous cave that houses various ornate statues and intricate murals depicting Buddhist teachings.
The cavernous interior exudes a sense of tranquility, making it an ideal place for meditation and reflection. The play of sunlight filtering through the openings in the cave ceiling adds a mystical touch to the ambiance, enhancing the overall spiritual experience.

Planned our trip to Ipoh over the weekend and stopped by the temple for a visit. This place is just by the roadside and can be easily accessed.
Come to our surprise that it was not crowded and it was chilly inside the temple, as it is in a cave.
Would recommend to drop by this place as a start before move on to the next beautiful cave in Ipoh.
Psst! Weather is getting hot and please prepare umbrella!
