Well worth a visit
It was wonderful up here. Came only to visit the temple and it was so worthwhile. The changing weather, from full cloud, to mist, to clear, made it so atmospheric. A fun drive up and down, plenty of parking and a really impressive place to see. Loved it.

Take your time to look at everything and read the stories
We got to the Temple after spending 4 hours in the Genting Highlands. We were there during the wet season and had decided to stop here on our way back and hope for clearer conditions. Which we got. There is a quite a lot to look at if you have the time. We did everything in just over an hour. There is a huge stone Buddha which you can get photos from many different angles. We took the walk through the 10 Chambers of hell. Quite graphic and confronting even though they are depicted as statues. We enjoyed reading each station to learn about what type of behaviour wasn't excepted. My son had decided that there was an 11th Chamber of Hell after our time in Malaysia - "This is for people who don't know how to stay on the left hand side of the elevators" The Pagoda is 9 levels high and is worth the walk up. The views were lovely and we gave a small donation when we were finished. There is the Goh Tong Hall which has toilets and a short walk up some stairs for views. The trip to and from the Skyway is quite steep but you don't have to walk as escalators take you there and back.
