In order to get to the caves you must climb 272 stairs. Once you reach the top you get to see the 100 meters high caves for yourself.

That the Batu Caves are very popular shows by all the shops and food stands on top of the caves. You can also find a lot of monkeys around the caves and if you’d like you can even put an Albino snake around you’re neck. The monkeys look very friendly but remember that they are still wild animals. Espied all the people who sell peanuts you shouldn’t feed the monkeys.
