Batu Caves

Sunday morning we took the monorail out to the Batu Caves, which is awesome. 

Hindu deities everywhere. This guy is ripping his heart from his chest.

Monkeys everywhere. I was terrified of getting my ankles bit by one so I just stood really still as they sauntered by. 

The giant gold statue next to the stairs.

Apparently there is a religious event every year where Hindu pilgrims will trek from KL Sentral to the Caves while pulling weights that are hooked into the flesh on their back, or else will make the trek on their knees. 

The view of the caves at the top.

For 1 ringgit 60 sen ($.70?) it was an awesome trip for a couple of hours.
