Holy Spelunking
The Batu Caves, located in the Selangor suburb of Kuala Lumpur, contain Hindu temples inside. You must ascend 272 steps to reach the biggest Cathedral Cave; there are also a number of smaller caves. The 140-foot-high golden statue at the entrance represents Murugan, a god in Hinduism.
LOCAL CUISINE
Kuala Lumpur is a paradise for street food. Grab satay sticks of grilled meat coated in peanut sauce. Sail to Kuala Lumpur and sample Malaysia's national dish, nasi lemak, which consists of coconut rice infused with pandan leaf, spicy sambal, cucumber slices, and a selection of meat — fried chicken is a popular choice. Savor the flatbread known as roti canai: Delight in the savory option with chicken or mutton, or sample the sweet variant with bananas and ice cream.
SHOPPING
Kuala Lumpur is famous for its outstanding shopping and offers prices that are more favorable than those in Hong Kong and Singapore. Explore the Bukit Bintang downtown area, Suria KLCC beneath the Petronas Towers, or the Central Market of Chinatown, known as Pasar Seni. While on your Kuala Lumpur cruise, seek out traditional textiles such as batik and Malay brocade.
