4.0Perak Tong Cave Temple(457 reviews) - Must go and fun! Spent 1-2 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks • Caverns & Caves • Religious Sites
Perak Cave Temple is located around 15 minutes ride from downtown Ipoh. The natural cave is the temple itself with statues and wall paintings of Buddha and Bodhisattvas. Therefore, the temple earns the name of "Dunhuang in the South". Following the passage of the cave, it will lead you to the apex of the hill where you can enjoy the views around. A peaceful and culture-rich religious site to visit. Recommend it.See more..
4.0Gua Tempurung(392 reviews) - Good Experience and Exercise Thursday: 9:00 AM - 4:15 PM Caverns & Caves
My husband and I visited this place on the weekend morning around 9.30 am. We chose the Tour 2,which takes you approximately an hour or so to walk around the cave. Tour 2 is the dry tour. Suitable for all age. It is not a guided tour (you do not need one), it is more walk around at your own pace. For this tour 2, you able to visit 5 platforms. Tour 1 is only 3 platforms and you will missed the special wind tunnel at platform 4 if you go for tour 1. The counter lady explained well to us on the difference between tour 1 and 2, polite and soft spoken lady. Overall, some stairs climbing included but not too tough as you can do it on your own pace.See more..
4.0Tasik Cermin(33 reviews) - Serene and picturesque Thursday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Bodies of Water • Caverns & Caves
This is a beautiful place off the main tourist track in Ipoh. It is located off the main road with the large Chinese cave temples. It can be a little tricky to find as that is no signage (that we could see). It looks like you are driving into someone's home. We were waved in by a man who collected the RM5 entry fee. The roads were bumpy, however still manageable in a lowered sedan car. On arrival, there was plenty of parking. You walk through a cave/tunnel. It is a little dark in the middle so have the torch on your phone handy to see the ground. On the other side you are greeted with a picturesque view. There is a viewing platform with seating. When we were there it was very quiet with only one other couple, it was about 9am. It was beautiful and serene. I can imagine that it would get quite busy later in the day. This place is incredible and well worth the visit, if in the area.See more..
