Gua Tempurung is located around 250 km from Kuala Lumpur, and just 20 km from Ipoh, the capital of Perak state. In recent year, Gua Tempurung has become quite popular. The cave interior is really huge. Its highest chamber is as high as half of the twin towers in KL. Once you climb up to the top there are many routes that you explore. To explore those routes you will need to get a guide. On today trip, since we are bringing many families along, we were hiking to the top chamber only.  

I remember some years ago, when we went back to Malaysia for CNY, we visited Gua Tempurung. But I didn’t realize it was 5 years ago, until I checked my old blog. My, time fly like rocket.    

The gang, consists of members age from 4-month-old to 65-year-old.        

Passing through the tunnel to the cave…          

    Since this was not our first time, we knew where the stair is going to lead us to.      

So, we just follow the path…        

Standing at this point to look at the surrounding has given me so much of the positive energy.

Looking at the pillar, and I feel only God can create it.        

We continued to proceed…        

  The rest of the journey is so beautiful, that the photos can tell….

We almost reached the end points up front. Next year, we plan to take a more challenging route that will go further down, and walk out the cave by following a stream.     The return journey was mainly a photo session for my 2 brothers and I.    

  It’s been a very long time since the 3 of us last met. It’s very precious and fun that we could ‘play’ together again, just like we did when we were kids.

  I had never imagined this youngest brother of mine, had become the father of 4 now…

And I had never imagined this younger brother of mine, still remain single yet enjoy his life to its fullest. Now then we are adults, we don’t play kid’s game anymore. This time, we tried to take good photos in the dark environment without flash light & tripod.        

We took turn to take pictures for one another…    

Not bad…    

Finally, the 3 of us walked back & met up with the rest of the gang from here. Heard that the kids had complained seriously about our “no show” for a long time. Haha…    

  One last look to the mysterious cave we have just explored…

I remember this part was pretty scary to me when I came 5 years ago, but not this year. Probably because we came in a big group this year that had diverted my attention.    

When the dark meets light…and I see hopes…

   

Ok, back to the end point, which is also the beginning point.

         

Gosh, had to see the glaring sun again…With some good company, this trip is full of fun though short.
