A visit to Kek Lok Tong

One of the key aspects of Chinese New Year is family reunion. During the Chinese New Year holidays, my family and I went together on a trip to Cameron Highlands together with my aunt's and uncle's families, not forgetting my grandmother too. There are five families altogether, though one of the members was missing due to study commitments (Don't fret, I'll be posting photos of the trip)...

Before going up the winding roads of Cameron Highlands, we stopped by Kek Lok Tong (极乐洞), a natural cave in Ipoh being used as a temple.

Can you feel the enormousness of the cave?


See how tiny are the people down there...

Kek Lok Tong is only one of the many wonderful caves that can be found in Perak. Sadly, most of them are only known to locals. Maybe the new BN government in Perak formed courtesy of jumping frogs can help popularize these tourist destinations.
