About 20 minutes from my house but, never had the thought to actually go there before. Why the sudden then? Answer: Simply, anyway it's good to explore your 'backyard' sometimes, you don't know what kind of treasure you'd find *winks
I went with the whole family, mom and dad only came to show 'moral support' heh.
It's automatically decided that it's only me, Aiman (2nd sis) and Athira (3rd sis) would explore the cave :D *wuuuu genuinely exciteddddddd!
Ok, you've got to be aware that, there are 4 tours that they provided and the price differs. Taking into consideration that we aren't familiar at all so we took the first option: Tour 1, also known as Golden Flowstones, which cost RM 6 if you're Malaysian for adults and RM 2.50 for children, also Malaysian, oh yeah RM 3 for senior citizen (60 above).
SIDE INFO: 1) Tour 1 = Golden Flowstones (40 mins)
2) Tour 2 = Top of the World (1h 45 mins)
3) Tour 3 = Top of the World & Short River Adventure (2h 30 mins)
4) Tour 4 = Grand Tour (3h 30 mins)
You should also take note that for tour 1 and tour 2, you don't really need a guide as you can just read the signs, and it's a 'dry tour' which indicates that you're not gonna be exposed to water where else for tour 3 and tour 4, 'wet tour', you pass through the underground river.
We left the house around 10 am, it opens at 9 am until 3 pm though, so choose whichever that suits your time. No need to rush. The cave won't go anywhere :D
After buying the tickets, this is the view that welcomed us:

| It says 'HELLO' |
So we just headed straight into the cave, it was chilly, because there was a river. Maybe about 5 minutes into the cave, the view was breathtaking!
Everything was just so pretty. You wonder how? And it's just WOW! Anyway, when I started feeling tired, that's when I realised it's the end of TOUR 1? WHAT? Bummer, yeah, I can't tell you much about it, and it's not 40 minutes as per what the information given, it only took us about 20-25 minutes, the fact that we were taking PICTURES, that's what made it longer, oh well, maybe they thought it's 40 minutes including the selfie? Who knows.. haha
Anyway, just imagine, if Tour 1 has given us this kind of feast to the eyes, imagine what it's like to go on Tour 2 or 3 or even 4 *imagining... imagining.... It's a present from the nature to us and thus, we'd have to appreciate it. I know I did.
And so, I only conquered TOUR 1: GOLDEN FLOWSTONES. It's a small achievement but what's important is it's a happy one. The rest will come in the future? Maybe.. If I am still here heheh :)

And yes, heading back home, one selfie together with the team and a picture of the stream which seems to be telling me GOODBYE DEAR, COME AGAIN *believe me, I can talk with nature
GOOD VIBES, ALWAYS
Much love, BukanNamaKau
p/s: Oh yeah, a small fact though, during the occupation, the Communist used to use this cave to held it's prisoners, I read that in their website though. If anything you can just found out just about everything on their website, am attaching the link below
