Batu Caves

Having read mixed reviews on Batu Caves we decided to make our own opinion, we had the morning to visit before flying back to Brunei later in the day.  It is another attraction that we can tick of our list of places to visit but not one we would revisit.  It has become very tourist orientated with the bottom of the caves full of shops and cafes.  The view from the top was spectacular and once again the fact we are now used to the heat definitely came into play.  There is 272 steps to climb to reach the top, Liam asked 'is that it'.  Jordan was so busy talking to Aaron upon reaching the top then asked 'so where are the steps we are going to climb!'.  We did however pass several people who were struggling with the heat and humidity, (they were sitting down resting on their way).  The monkeys are very used to the visitors and perform readily for the camera.  Having monkeys outside our house daily in Brunei no longer makes this quite as interesting for the boys.  The golden statue is magnificent so maybe worth the visit to see.
