Het was goed, maar de tempel van Thean Hou, die in de beschrijving stond, werd niet bezocht, maar de batu grot en de batikfabriek waren goed.

Het was een ervaring voor het leven. Het is moeilijk om naar de grot te lopen, maar het is het helemaal waard. Ik hield van elke stap. Geweldige plek om te bezoeken - vriendelijk en veilig, kijk alleen uit voor de apenrovers.

The guide, I think his name was Sasi, was very informative and entertaining at the same time. Consequently the coach trip went quite quickly. I felt 1.5 hours in the temple was too long, and could have done without the batik shop stop, but otherwise it was very interesting.

Your experience

Discover Kuala Lumpur's religious and cultural gems

Experience the rich cultural and religious heritage of Kuala Lumpur on this immersive half-day tour. Depending on the option you select, you'll be picked up in an AC vehicle from your hotel and taken to some of the city’s most iconic landmarks.

Your journey begins at the famous Batu Caves, a Hindu temple complex nestled within ancient limestone hills. The 272-step climb rewards you with breathtaking views of Kuala Lumpur’s skyline and the opportunity to explore the vibrant cave shrines. Keep an eye out for playful monkeys and marvel at the intricate depictions of Hindu gods in the Ramayana Cave. Your tour also includes a visit to the renowned Royal Selangor Pewter factory, where you can witness traditional Batik painting demonstrations by skilled craftsmen.

National Mosque of Malaysia & Thean Hou Temple

If you opt for the private half-day tour, your next stop will be the National Mosque of Malaysia. Built between 1963 and 1965, this modern architectural wonder is set on 13 acres of serene gardens and can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers. Its bold design reflects the aspirations of the nation, making it a key cultural landmark.

Explore Thean Hou Temple, a stunning six-tiered Buddhist temple dedicated to the Goddess of Heaven. Built by Kuala Lumpur’s Hainanese community, this temple offers a peaceful retreat with panoramic views of the city from its hilltop location. It’s one of the oldest and largest temples in Southeast Asia, blending Chinese, Buddhist, and Taoist influences.

Final Stops

Before concluding your tour, enjoy lunch if you’ve selected the lunch option, followed by brief visits to a Sikh gurdwara and Brickfield Church. Finally, relax as you're driven back to your hotel, enriched by the day’s discoveries.
