'Colours are brighter when the mind is open' 🌈 // Exploring Batu Caves was something I was looking forward to the most before our trip to Kuala Lumpur and it definitely lived up to the expectations! Super unique place that is the site of one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside of India! 😍 At the top of these 272 colourful stairs, there's a temple that is located inside the limestone caves - such an epic spot for a temple! 🪨 Oh and seeing the monkeys running up and down the stairs made the climb less tiring 🐒 (because I was distracted)! 😆 Highly recommend visiting this place if you go to KL, we went at 7am just before sunrise to get photos of the stairs when they were quite empty 😉 Ps. Did you know that the stairs were only painted these colours in August 2018? 🌈 Before that they were just a single brown colour all the way up - it definitely looks a lot more photogenic now! 😀 Pps. A tip for females visiting here, you have to wear something that covers your knees 💃🧍🏻‍♀️ #batucaves #kualalumpur #malaysia #streetclassics (at Batu Caves) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccz9upJPL7_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
