Singapore scouts visit to Malaysia DAY 2 on 15 Dec 2009

Once again, our exciting trip has just started.

Today, we were directly heading to Batu Caves, where is also a popular tourist attraction in Malaysia. But we were planned to learn new knowledge inside, so instead of just visiting the temple cave, we also prefer the Dark Cave educational trip. There was a massive Murugan statue which is known as the largest Murugan statue in the world standing just beside the entrance of Batu Caves. Then we climb up to 272 steps of staircase to reach to the cave. Luckily, there were no monkey attack that day. I gonna tell you, 272 steps is not actually a simple task, but we all had made it finally. Congratulations.

Temple cave is actually an Indian kuil set up inside the cave. All the statue is beautiful. The power of Nature also created a fairytales scenery inside the cave. Well, this is really a big waste if you never been here before to enjoy this throughout your eyesight. Next, the Dark Cave, as what it named, is really dark inside. Inside this mysterious cave, there had hidden so many things yet to be discovered. We found a bunch of different shapes of stalagtile and stalagmite. It was cool. You have to experience it and try out, you'll see this will really amazed you.

We had our lunch at Selangor Cultural Cove just beside Batu Caves. We enjoyed our food a lot and impressed of the cultural show performed there. I like it so much. Our next destination is a waterfall inside Gombak area. We are so unlucky that some of the juniors who didn't bring along their raincoats were unable to trek into the waterfall but just to wait their seniors came back. But I am pretty sure that they also enjoyed at the bothside. Actually that day was a bit freezing. And I got leech bite just in the middle of my hips. OMG...

We had our dinner at a cultural restaurant also. We had eaten a lot and this was really satisfied. Thats the end of the day when we reach back to YMCA after that.

I am sure that these Singaporeans have started to plan what to buy on scout shop and awaits for campfire the next day. Am I right?
