Cave Temple in the Middle of Limestone Mountains
I think Ipoh is one of underrated city in Malaysia. If you come to Ipoh by car or bus, you will know that the city is mesmerizing, surrounded by the limestone mountains. It looks like in Avatar the movie. Not too far from city center, there is a beautiful caves temple, named Kek Lok Tong. It's approximately 15 – 20 minutes ride from city center. I got there by online taxi booking for about RM 12. It opens from from 8 a.m to 4:30 p.m. When I arrived, I saw a lot of seniors were coming in group. Then I entered the temple, and I realized that this temple has a hassle-free access. At the back of the temple, you'll find a lake and river that makes this place even prettier. You can take a paddle boat for RM 12 within 30 minutes ride.
