Malaysia, part 2- Batu Caves in KL

IN MALAYSIA, PART 2:

We went to the Batu Caves in Kuala Lumpur, (KL is awesome by the way)...

and i can't remember any of the significance of any of this so I'm going to make it up.

This is from inside the cave, and the locals call this the Portal to a Higher Plane. The Higher Plane is the top of the mountain that the cave is housed in.

Front of the Batu Caves. Lots of Hindu statuettes all over here, apparently some of the Malaysian population is Hindu.


Backside of a massive statue


Frontside of same statue. Also, looks up at the hundreds of steps to the cave, which sometimes are packed with people on certain religious holidays, which was terrifying to contemplate when we were climbing up.


This was my favorite statue of the day.
