A spectacular religious site for Hindus - Batu Caves Temple in Malaysia is a grand homage to Lord Muruga, the Hindu deity of war who carries the celestial spear. Interestingly, the mouth of the Batu Caves Temple resembles a 'vel' - the head of the celestial spear of Lord Muruga.
The temple houses a 140-feet tall golden-painted monumental statue of Lord Muruga which is said to be the biggest Lord Muruga statue in the world. The massive rainbow-coloured staircase that leads to the caves is exceptionally colourful and steep, offering a visual treat to the eyes. Millions of devotees and tourists flock to Batu Caves Temple to celebrate Thaipusam Festival.
