  • Very beautiful, clean and peaceful temple inside cave. Easy to reach and the cave is well preserved, no foul smell unlike some other caves. It opens into a beautiful landscape harder which hosts a small pond. Need to visit before 4pm. Best part, it's cool inside, no matter how hot the outside weather is.. Magical!
  • This place is magnificent. From the entrance you will welcome with a grand Hall with Buddha for praying and beautiful limestone. Further up you will presented a paint like scenery with lake and beautifully crafted landscape. You can't resist to have taking photographs over and over again. The scenery gives you feels of peaceful. Make sure you visit Kek Lok Tong when you are at Ipoh.
