kuala lumpur and batu caves

batu caves, kuala lumpur, malaysia

i had about a day in kuala lumpur, malaysia! i stayed at a utilitarian malaysian chain hotel called “tune” at the airport, which was a perfect blend of convenience and value. the kuala lumpur international airport (klia) is a city unto itself; the budget-airline half of which is connected to a massive shopping mall with an amazing international food court!

i took the impressive kuala lumpur mass transit system to the batu caves in the suburbs. there are hindu temples within large caves, guarded by the world’s largest statue of the hindu god muragon, and many monkeys running around.
