Batu Caves in Selangor, Malaysia, features a massive Hindu temple complex dedicated to Lord Murugan, with a 42.7 meter golden statue.
It’s famous for its 272 vibrant, rainbow colored steps, steep climb, and cathedral like main cave.

The Batu Caves, as seen from the very bottom, looking up the multi-colored stairway leading directly up and into the darkness of the caves in the hills above. To the right of the stairs stands the towering, golden Murugan Statue.
A small temple inside the Batu Caves. The small temple itself is a simple structure with green support columns, with statues of deities in the back. All around the small temple, the cave walls tower above, with various spots of moss and bushes. Sunlight pours in from the large opening at the very top, where various trees can be seen.
Whoever was crazy enough to build this temple into this cave made the right call 💚
