Gua Tempurung, located 25km south of Ipoh near Gopeng, is probably the largest cave in Peninsula Malaysia and has plenty to attract the serious caving enthusiast, the adventure seeker or just the casual visitor.

History of the Cave

A lot of work went into creating this massive cave. First of all this entire area, known as the Kinta Valley, needed to be covered by sea.

Billions of microscopic marine organisms had to die and fall to the ocean floor where their tiny shells were compressed into limestone.

Then the ocean floor had to be uplifted from under the sea by massive movements of the earth's crust.

Finally rainfall and flowing water had to work its magic for the next 250 million years or so, carving sinkholes, chimneys and galleries from the limestone rock.

Meanwhile millions of specs of calcium carbonate contained in drops of dissolved limestone coagulated together at an infinitesimally slow rate to create the wonders of stalagmites and stalactites.

That's why we humans have to look after our caves. If we break off a piece of stalactite it won't grow back in our lifetime (they grow at the rate of 1 inch every 200 years on average).

Apart from limestone, the cave contains deposits of tin, marble and other minerals. There was some small-scale tin mining in the cave at various times over the past century.

During the Malayan Emergency (1948-1960), communist guerrillas used the cave as a hideout and some of their graffiti is still visible on the walls.

In 1995 work began to turn the cave into a tourist attraction and steel and concrete staircases were put in place, viewing platforms and railings added for safety and spot lights placed at strategic locations to illuminate the cave's most attractive features.

Facts about Gua Tempurung

The total length of the cave is 4.5km although the part accessible to the public is about 1.9km.

The cave contains an underground river of 1.6km in length.

The cave complex comprises 5 giant domes:

-  Golden Flowstone Cavern  Reaching 90 meters in height, this gallery includes a smoothed stone cascade which looks golden when the river is in flow.

-  Gergasi (Giant) Cavern  Contains a massive 15m high column.

-  Tin Mine Cavern  Excavations left by earlier tin miners can be seen here.

-  Alam (Universe) Cavern  A 72 meter high cavern.

-  Battlefield Cavern  Fallen stalactites and rock formations litter the floor of this gallery including one nicknamed the Fallen Warrior.

Some of these domes are said to resemble coconut shells. Tempurung  is the Bahasa word for coconut shell.

The karst hill above the cave is sometimes called Gunung Tempurung and is about 500m high. Its spectacular size and shape make it clearly visible from the North South Expressway.

The cave is home to bats especially during the mating season from March to May. Their droppings have created bat guano artworks on some the dome ceilings.

The first time I visited Gua Tempurung it was Monday morning and I was the only visitor there. As a result I was only allowed to do Tour #1 which is a pity as I would have liked to see more. Still, it was very interesting and the photos shown here were taken on that tour.

What to Bring

For the  dry tours (1 & 2) , wear a T-shirt and long trousers or shorts. It is quite hot and sticky in the cave. Wear comfortable hiking boots, shoes or sandals with a good grip.

Bring a camera capable of taking reasonable shots in low light conditions. A torch or headlamp would be useful but your guide will have one.

For the  wet tours (3 & 4)  you will need a change of clothing and a towel after you complete the tour.

Knee pads and gloves are recommended. You will need to waterproof your camera if you bring one. You will be provided with a helmet.

How to Get to Gua Tempurung

The location of Gua Tempurung is marked on my interactive map on the  Caves page .  It was easy to find. I exited the North-South Expressway at the Gopeng exit. After the toll gate I turned left onto Federal Route 1 in the direction of Kampar. After 5km I turned left when I saw the large billboard pointing to Gua Tempurung. It was another couple of kilometres from there. There was plenty of parking.

While you are in Ipoh you could  take my walking tour.

Facilities at Gua Tempurung

There was a shop selling snacks, water and souvenirs. They were also renting bicycles at RM6 per hour (RM3 for kids).

Toilets and changing rooms are available.

It is possible to do  white water rafting  on the nearby Kampar River. There are a few adventure tour companies offering packages of shooting rapids and paddling along the Sungai Kampar.

Tour 2 (Dry Tour) at Gua Tempurung Cave

What’s a caving enthusiast to do? So many lovely cave temples in Ipoh, but all the interesting looking nooks and tunnels are blocked off to visitors! For those wanting to do some cave exploration, whatever your adventure level, you should head to Tempurung Cave.

Admission Prices Getting Here & Parking When To Visit Amenities at Gua Tempurung Cave What To Expect on Tour 2 What To See at Each Platform Saturday Worthy? Basic Info at a Glance

Admission Prices at Gua Tempurung

Getting Here & Parking

Gua Tempurung is located far south of Ipoh, about a 45-minute drive from the centre of town. If you have a car to drive here, the parking lot at Gua Tempurung is quite big and parking is free .

There is no bus to Tempurung Cave. Other blogs mention bus 66 from Ipoh to Gua Tempurung, but as of the end of 2020, this route did not seem to exist any more when we were doing our trip planning. Even when it was in service, it was horribly inconvenient: you had to get to Medan Kidd bus station, which is far from any decent hotels, and the drop off point was about 5 kilometres from Tempurung Cave itself.

You should not rely on ride-hailing services like Grab to get to Gua Tempurung either. Tempurung Cave is in the middle of nowhere and no smart Grab driver would be willing to drive all that way for one fare. The only option for those without a car is to hire a driver . This is obviously not the most economical choice for the thrifty traveller, but it is incredibly stress-free: door-to-door service, the ability to leave heavy backpacks in the car, and bottled water provided in a comfortable air-conditioned ride.

Drivers can be hired for half a day. This is enough to get to Tempurung Cave, but if you hire one for the whole day, you can visit other inconveniently located attractions like Kellie’s Castle and Mirror Lake. There are many reputable drivers in Ipoh to choose from who have a respectable command of English. TripAdvisor is a good resource for this, and where we found recommendations for the driver we chose.

We hired a man named Paul Leong , a longtime Ipoh denizen making an honest living in his retired years as a tour guide and driver. He was jovial and knowledgable about the attractions we had planned to see that day. His fee was RM350 for eight hours , from pickup at our hotel at 9 am to drop off shortly after 5 pm. His phone number can be found in the Facebook post above. This number is contactable on WhatsApp and is still correct as of 2020. If you follow the link to his Facebook page by clicking the above image, you can find his email to get in touch, message him on Facebook, or make a booking directly on his page.

When To Visit Gua Tempurung

The usual strategy of coming here on a weekday to beat the crowds might backfire. I’ve read that if Gua Tempurung is too quiet – as in you’re literally the only tourist there – then Tour 2 will be unavailable and you’ll have to do Tour 1 instead. The minimum number of guests that Gua Tempurung needs to have is only 5 persons to open up Tour 2, so this will rarely be an issue. We came on a Monday at 10 am – arguably the quietest period of the week – and there were no problems. Even in the middle of a pandemic, Gua Tempurung had more than enough visitors to meet the 5 person quota. Visiting in the afternoon may have fewer crowds since Tours 3 and 4 do not run after 12 pm. By 2 pm, all of the people in these groups will be cleared out of the dry portions of the cave, and you’ll just have to deal with Tour 1 and 2 visitors.

Amenities at Gua Tempurung

There is a convenience store on-site that sells food and drinks, useful for fuelling up before your cave adventure or indulging in some much-needed snacks afterwards. You can also pick up a souvenir to remember your visit in case the memories aren’t enough. Near the parking lot, there were a couple of hawker tents set up. On this day there was a lady selling deep-fried food and a vendor selling drinks and fruit.

There is a toilet across from the ticket booth – two separate rooms with one toilet and a sink for men and women. There was no hook or shelf in the room, so I had to put my rucksack on the dirty floor. The toilet was sitting style, but there was no paper provided. At the sink, there was no soap and nothing to dry my hands with. Most annoying was that there were no lights in the room. When I closed the door, it was too dark to see anything so I had to turn on my phone flashlight and rest it on my backpack for a light source. Clearly, not the most comfortable facilities but there are no toilets in the cave so this is the only opportunity to go.

Gua Tempurung Dry Tour Overview

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cheryl (@charktales)

Tour 2 is completely self-guided and requires no special gear . Without a ranger guide, you are free to go at your own pace and spend as much time marvelling at the cave system as you want. This tour takes you to all five platforms, plus the obligatory entrance platform. Tour 2’s stated duration of 1 hour and 45 minutes round trip is surprisingly accurate. This is almost exactly how much time we took, even with lots of dawdling and long photo breaks. This duration time is not a rule but only an average. You could take twice that amount of time in the cave and no one will kick you out.

The inside of Tempurung Cave is so grand that you won’t ever feel claustrophobic… at least not on the dry tours. The massive caverns have dripping stalactites that loom high overhead, yet are so large that some are beginning to join with stalagmites they have created. The long, unbroken passageway climbs up and disappears deep into the mountain, out of sight. While on the tour, remember to look back behind you periodically so you can get a view of how high you’ve climbed so far.

There is no chance of getting dirty or wet on Tour 2. The walkways are all man-made and raised high enough from the water and muck. Still, you should wear appropriate walking shoes for this tour. It is an hour and 45-minute walk with a lot of stairs along the way, which would not be pleasant if you wore flip-flops to Gua Tempurung.

Speaking of stairs, Tour 2 at Gua Tempurung could probably be classified as mild to moderate exercise, depending on your fitness level. There are 640 steps to get up to where this tour ends, and the same 640 steps down to get out of the cave. This may sound gruelling, as it’s more than twice the steps of the brutal climb at KL’s Batu Caves, but the journey is broken up with flat stretches and viewing platforms. There will be lots of times when you’ll be resting. Not because you’re tired, but because of the amazing view in front of you.

What To See At Each Platform

Entrance platform – aiyahhh….

After passing through the cave mouth and a short entry tunnel, the entrance platform is first. Built at ground level, it is just above the river that flows out of the cave. I’m not sure why it’s hilariously named “AIYAHHH…!” Perhaps there was an incident before the guard rails were put up when a tourist slipped and fell into the river.

Platform 1 – Mr. Bat

The view from the Mr. Bat platform is back toward the cave mouth where you just came from. The limestone up top has been naturally tinged a beautiful seafoam green. The sun streams in through the cracks in the cave, and its daytime blue light brings oceanic colours into the cave. A very photogenic scene.

Despite its name, I didn’t see or hear any bats. They do take up residence at Tempurung Cave, and during the mating season between March and May maybe you’ll be able to spot one.

Platform 2 – Echo Echo

Echo-Echo has a stunning view of the Golden Flowstone Cavern. The stairs worm their way into a teepee-shaped section of limestone, bending and snaking upward before disappearing into the bowels of the cave. From here, you can get a sneak peek at the next platform on the tour: a small flat section that reappears after the path enters through the tunnel.

Platform 3 – Golden Flowstone

Before you get to this platform, keep your eye out for the decades-old etchings in the rock. These are leftover from when communist rebels used Gua Tempurung as a hideout back in the 1950s during the Malayan Emergency. These are easy to miss since some just look like scratches in the rock, but the most obvious graffiti are these mysterious cars. This historic cave art is located at the top of the stairs that enter the teepee-shaped rock.

The actual Golden Flowstone platform is within a cosier part of the cave where the ceilings are much lower. When the underground river is flowing, it rushes over the golden-toned rock, hence its name.

Platform 4 – Wind Tunnel

Platform 4 begins at – surprise! – a tunnel that’s windy! Even being this deep in the cave, you can still feel a refreshing cool breeze blowing through. The wind tunnel goes for quite a ways until you emerge into what looks like the old bones of a whale’s belly.

Platform 5 – Top of the World

The “Top of the World” is where Tour 2 ends. The rock ceiling is just a few feet above your head and far down below in the darkness is the cave floor. For the final platform, there’s not much to see here. It is darker here than on the other platforms and chances are you won’t be able to get a decent photo of anything.

If you’re lucky enough to catch them, the most interesting things at this stop are the geared up adventurers on Tours 3 or 4 descending into the cave’s creepy depths. Their bobbing headlamps give off an eerie glow, getting smaller and smaller before being swallowed up by the blackness of the cave. Once you’re done at this platform, there’s nothing else but to walk back the way you came to the cave entrance.

Saturday Worthy?

If you can find a reliable ride there and back, you should make time to go to Tempurung Cave for whatever kind of tour you fancy. This was an amazing, extensive cave where I felt like I got more than my money’s worth considering how long I spent there. I also loved how the dry tours were self-guided so that I didn’t feel rushed by a guide telling me it’s time to move on to the next stop. I’m already planning for a wet tour the next time I’m in Ipoh!

Gua Tempurung- Malaysia’s top limestone cave tour in Gopeng

Posted on Last updated: July 24, 2023

Categories Perak

During my recent visit to Kampar, a small town near Gua Tempurung. I came a day ahead and booked the tour of Gua Tempurung for the next morning.

Gua Tempurung is the largest limestone cave in Peninsular Malaysia.

Gua means cave, and Tempurung is a coconut shell in Malay. Gua Tempurung gets its name from the shape of the surrounding limestone hills that resemble coconut shells.

The cave is divided into four levels. Levels one and two are part of the show cave, with concrete steps and handrails on two sides.  Both levels are also lit up, making it suitable for anyone visiting the cave.

Levels three and four are part of the wet tour, meaning walkways ens here. For casual visitors, the best part of the cave is an underground river run in this part, which spans about 1.6 deep into the cave. The shallow water level allows anyone physically fit to tread along the river and explore deeper into the cave. 

On our first day in Kampar, we stayed at Adeline Villa, where we embarked on an exhilarating white water rafting experience along the beautiful Sungai Kampar. Our guide, Along, greeted us at the villa the following morning and set off for our next adventure – exploring the magnificent Gua Tempurung.

1. The Fascinating History of Gua Tempurung

Gua Tempurung is estimated to have formed 250 to 400 million years ago, based on the age of the rock formations in the area. The creation of this vast cave involved a remarkable process. Firstly, the entire area known as the Kinta Valley had to be submerged under the sea. Then, billions of microscopic marine organisms thrived and eventually perished, their tiny shells compressed into the limestone on the ocean floor over millions of years.

Massive movements of the earth’s crust later uplifted the former ocean floor from beneath the sea. Over the next 250 million years, rainfall and flowing water worked their magic. Millions of specks of calcium carbonate in drops of dissolved limestone carve sinkholes and chimneys and gradually solidify to form the mesmerizing stalagmites and stalactites that grace the cave.

We arrived at Gua Tempurung around 9:30 am on a bustling Saturday, and we found the main parking area jam-packed with cars and tour buses. Along decided to use another parking area further from the entrance with ample space.

There is a prominent signboard displaying the various tour options right at the main entrance:

• Tour 1: This tour takes us to the Golden Flowstone platform halfway along the dry path. It’s an easy yet walk, with concrete pathways and steel staircases, through the dimly lit showcase gallery.
• Tour 2: If we choose this option, we will reach the Top of the World platform, the highest point in the cave, standing 125 meters above ground level.
• Tour 3: This is the tour we opted for, encompassing all the features of Tours 1 and 2, with an added short river adventure. The river adventure entails sliding down slippery stones, crawling through holes, and experiencing a thrilling underground river passage on the return trip.
• Tour 4: The ultimate adventure takes that will take anyone to the cave’s far end. However, it is known to be the most demanding and strenuous option.

We selected Tour 3, a memorable and exciting expedition to this magnificent cave.

2. Exploring the Marvels of Gua Tempurung

Our guide, Along, has taken care of the entrance tickets. Filled with a unique blend of anticipation and trepidation for the unknown, we bravely ventured into the mysterious depths of Gua Tempurung.

The first part is quite easy to walk. The concrete path ran alongside the underground river, revealing marble stones beneath the water and limestone form. We also saw some breathtaking stalactites near the main entrance. There are also marble and other mineral deposits besides limestone.

Initially, the entrance area was bright, but as we moved past the only opening of the cave, it gradually became darker, with dimmed electric lighting throughout the walkway.

There are a few viewing platforms. Soon we arrive at the first one- The Entrance Platform.

a. The Entrance Platform– AIYAHHH

The Entrance Platform has an intriguing name- AIYAHHH, but why it is called is remained unclear. 

According to a signboard erected here, water can create huge caves in limestone rocks connected by underground tunnels. Sinkholes formed by water falling through them can carve out deep pools, while stalactites and stalagmites are common cave formations.

Marble is formed when limestone rock undergoes heating and squeezing underground, leading to changes in color and texture.

As we moved towards Platform 1, Along pointed out various rock formations, some resembling animals, but it required imagination to visualize their likeness.

b. Platform 1 – Mr. Bat

This part of the cave serves as the mating spot for bats from March to May each year. Although no bats were seen, as now is not the mating season, bat guano covered the floor bed. The area also boasted intriguing rock formations.

c. Platform 2 – Echo-Echo

Throughout the past century, small-scale tin mining has been in the cave. Our guide showcased some tools used for tin mining here. 

Live stalactites were also present, growing only about an inch in a hundred years. This is precisely why we, as humans, must care for our caves. If we were to break off a piece of stalactite, it would not regrow within our lifetime.

As we walked along the walkway, we noticed inscriptions in Chinese, likely left by the Communists during World War 2. More inscriptions can be found in another nearby cave called Gua Kandu. Throughout the Malayan emergency era from 1948 until 1960, the cave was a hideout and shelter for communists. Even today, evidence of their presence can still be observed through various graffiti adorning the cave walls.

d. Platform 3 – Golden Flowstone

Situated in a cozier cave section with lower ceilings, the Golden Flowstone platform derives its name from the rushing underground river flowing over the golden-toned rock, creating a breathtaking sight.

Upon reaching Platform 3, which marks the end of Tour 1, we enjoyed the best viewpoint to observe the golden flowstone cavern with huge domes. The area featured many stones with glittering minerals and stalagmites formed by continuous water dripping.

e. Platform 4 – Wind Tunnel

As the name implies, this part of the walkway is accompanied by a sudden blow of cold wind. Additionally, the area showcases interesting rock formations.

f. Platform 5 – Top of the World

This part of the walkway reached the cave’s highest point, marking the end of Tour 2. As we approached this platform, we noticed the rock ceiling hovering just a few feet above our head, while far below, the cave floor vanished into darkness. Unfortunately, few photos were taken here; the area is darker than the other platforms.

Watch the video we shot at Gua Tempurung (at the end of this article) 👇👇.

3. Get Ready for an Exciting Water Adventure

Beyond this point, the walkway winds down until we reach a gate, which marks the beginning of Tour 3. From here, the dry tour ends, and we must venture into the cave in its natural state, with no human intervention. As the lights fade, we rely on our headlamps to light the way.

We soon arrived at the renowned area of Tour 3, where each of us had to slide down a slippery rock. 

After the thrilling slide, we descended through a hole in the ground, emerging below the main cave floor, then passing through a tunnel of the cave.

This is where the excitement truly begins, as it becomes dark and wet!

While treading the river, we observed many small stalactites hanging from the rock. 

The underground adventure was awesome! It involved navigating a series of tunnels with water flowing through them. Initially, we walked through shallow water, but as we progressed, we encountered sections where we had to waddle like a duck or crawl. Fortunately, we were well-prepared and rented their comfortable rubber shoes, perfect for wading through water.

4. Capturing the enchanting depths of Gua Tempurung with my mirrorless camera

The space between us and the cave was minimal in some parts, and I even struggled to keep my camera from getting wet. Despite knowing the risks of damage, I decided to carry a mirrorless camera. I anticipated that a mobile phone camera or GoPro wouldn’t do justice to capturing the beauty of this dimly lit environment.

I have successfully captured photos and videos of the darkest part of the cave. If you’re an adventurous bug like me, you’ll be captivated by these stunning images. The video is even more mesmerizing, and I’ve included the link at the end of this article.

We follow the river, which eventually emerges from underground. It brought us back to somewhere near the entrance. I do not know how long we spent inside the cave, but it took roughly 1.5 hours. 

The Gua Tempurung trip is one of the best outdoor trips I have been on recently. I recommend anyone who likes nature, like caving and is physically and mentally fit to take one such exhilarating experience.

5. An Exhilarating Outdoor Adventure

Our journey led us along the meandering underground river, resurfacing again, bringing us back near the cave entrance. The sense of time was lost within the cave’s enchanting confines, but we estimated that the expedition lasted around 1.5 hours.

The Gua Tempurung trip is undoubtedly one of the most memorable outdoor adventures I’ve experienced recently. I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on this extraordinary expedition for anyone who loves nature and caving enthusiasts with good physical and mental fitness.

6. Essential Information for Gua Tempurung Adventure

• Opening Hours: Daily from 9.00 am to 4.00 pm.
• Footwear Recommendation: For the wet tour, rubber shoes with a sturdy grip are essential to navigate the slippery terrain.
• Clothing Tips: Wear long pants to ensure a comfortable and safe exploration. Opt for quick-dry materials, like those used in scuba diving apparel, to keep you dry during your journey.
• Address: Pusat Pelancongan Gua Tempurung, 31600 Gopeng, Perak, Malaysia.
• Don’t forget to bring a reliable torchlight or, even better, a headlamp.

Gua Tempurung

Gua Tempurung or Tempurung Cave

Located in Gopeng, about 24km south of the capital city of Ipoh in Perak, this limestone cave is one of the largest in Peninsular Malaysia. Though not as big as Niah Cave and Mulu Cave in Sarawak, beginners to caving exploration will be glad to know that this cave is easy to explore. 

The Gunung Tempurung and Gunung Gajah that are visible from the road as you head towards Gua Tempurung in Gopeng, Perak.

The interior of the cave which is made up of marble and limestones.

The tunnel of the cave runs from the east to the west covering a distance of about 2km under the limestone hills known as Gunung Tempurung and Gunung Gajah. It is made up of 5 large domes and is believed to have existed since 8,000 B.C., about 10,000 years ago.

There are lighting and platforms that have been built for the initial part of the cave to enable you to walk with ease. If you are more adventures, you can choose to go deeper into the cave depending on which tour package you take. Remember to take your camera and take pictures of the many stalagmites (structure that grows from the ground upwards) and the stalactites (structure that grows from the top of the cave). A subterranean river flows underneath the caves. The water is crystal clear and is still unpolluted in this part of the world.

The operation hours of the cave is from 9:00am to 5:00pm everyday. There are 4 tour packages with different pricing that you can choose in exploring the cave.

Dry Tour 1: Golden Flowstone

This tour takes you approximately 20 minutes to reach to platform 3 known as Golden Flowstone. You will be able to see the limestones that resembles a golden colour at this platform.

Great review – thanks for all the handy info.

No worries, Lee. Enjoy your trip, shout out if you need any answers and I’ll do my best.

Can i purchase ticket by online??

Hey Samuel,

From what I gather, no. You might find a tour organised on something like TripAdvisor but the prices will be a lot higher than buying the ticket yourself.

Hi! My name is Aiman and I’ll be going to Gua Tempurung this coming Sunday. Thanks for sharing your experience. Now I got some ideas of what to expect & prepare before going there. ???

Thanks for the message Aiman, hope you had an epic time today exploring Gua Tempurung 🙂

Hi! We are planning to go to Gua tempurong next week. Do you have any idea how to get there from KL? We are arriving in KL at 6am on 29 March. And we plan to go directly to GT when we reach KL.

Hey Synz, sorry I didn’t get to this til now (silly press trips). Let me know how the trip was!

hi, Im aishwariya. I am going to gua tempurung for next weekend. But, its kinda hard for me to find the actual price for the tours. Do we need to book in advance?

Hey ya, no need to book in advance. Assume the prices are the same as the picture in the post 🙂 Enjoy!

Great Post, Jub! I haven’t done the wet tour yet. Should pay a visit soon.

Definitely worth a look!

How i get to require or go there only pay money then can go in ?

Hey Kvis, yup, you don’t need to book in advance. Just bring cash along!

I’m planning to go to tempurung straight away after I landed from Singapore at 9 am. Could we make it for the grand wet tour? Since we are straight from airport, we will bring along our backpacks.. is it possible to deposit the back at Tempurung Cave?

Hey Adrian,

As it’s an international flight you’d have to get a perfect run and still thin you’d not make it on time that day. Can you do it the following day?

Can definitely deposit bags with the staff at the cave entry 🙂 ENJOY

Hye Jub is there any package tours? Because I would like to have a look in all the 4 tours. And how about the price.?

Not that I am aware of, could be worth checking out http://tourismperakmalaysia.com/ and emailing them.

Hi Jub, are the tours operated by GTOC ( Gua Tempurung Outdoor Camp)? They are quoting RM 50 for the grand adventure tour and I am wondering if I can just sign up at Gua Tempurung instead.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Unless things have changed, you can just turn up and book there 🙂 Have the best time ever!

Hey there Jub! I’m heading over to Gua Tempurung this Saturday and your blog has helped me a lot. Thank you! Also, some of the places you’ve been are places i’m looking forward to go so i’ll be jotting down tips for that as well. Look forward to read more!

Awesome, thanks for reading. Have fun in the cave and the rest of Perak!!!

Hi, im planning to go gua tempurung with few my bff, how can i get there from ipoh? And how to get back to ipoh after done? We will not be driving though. What is the best time to visit the gua?

Hi there, sorry for the delayed response. Answers are both in the post 😀

can i pay on online

Unfortunately, not at this time. Cash in hand at the location. Cheers, Jub

Hi, I really wanted to try tour3 but I only have 3person in my team(including me). Is there anyway for us to do tour3?

Hi Eugenia, Turn up and you’ll be able to do tour3 no doubt. They’ll figure out a solution for you 😉 Let me know how you get on! Cheers, Jub

Hello, thanks for the sharing, it is very helpful. We uni students (28 of us) plan to have a day trip over there. Hence I am wondering if we need to book the ticket in advance since there is huge bunch of us and we get a tour guide for it?

In the price listing, what is the diff between TWR and GT since both are wet tours.

Hey Bee Hong Ang,

I believe the fourth tour GT is slightly longer. I’d definitely choose the GT tour.

And probably a good idea to book in advance with such a large group. at least let them know you’re coming.

Cheers, jub

Such a wonder as it has been formed for about 1.59 million years ago during Early Pleistocene. Gua Tempurung is not only an ideal spot for adventure seekers, it is equally informative and an eye-opener on the importance of preserving natural landscape and geology.

Price: RM 100 / person (Malaysian) / RM120/person (Non-Malaysian)

Part 1/2 of grand tour (dry tour).

An easy and exciting dry path tour, walking along concrete pathways and steel staircases. As you enter through the walkway on stilts over the cave river, you will see layers of white marble stone slabs and walls with different hues. Stalagmites and stalactites on walls and ceilings take various astounding sizes and shapes. Your eyes seem to play tricks on you when images of certain animals and human figures come into view.

Walking deeper to the dimmed showcase gallery, you will be struck by the beauty of the Golden Flowstone. Standing at a height of 90 metres, Golden Flowstone at Platform 3 describes the sloping and wavering floor and wall of the cave which has a golden hue when water flows over it and illuminated by gentle light. Along the way, take a breather at the Wind Tunnel and feel the cool breeze before you proceed to the Giant Cavern, which holds a huge stalagmite that glittered with dew.

You get to enjoy lots more when you climb higher to Platform 5. Standing approximately at a height of 125 metres from the platform to the river below. By then, you would have climbed 640 steps! Enjoy the breathtaking silence and beauty of the surrounding. You will be filled with awe viewing the cave ceilings from the shortest distance.

PART 2/2 OF GRAND TOUR (WET TOUR)

Next, you will walk down the stairs to reach the Tin Mine Cavern where you will have a peek into tin mining activities that took place in the old days. Then, the Universe Cavern comes into view. There, you will see a slender stalactite called Tongkat Ali (a walking stick or cane) before coming across the Fallen Warrior and Battlefield Cavern with an amazing formation that looks like a warrior falling down in a battlefield.

You will wade through the underground river that reaches waist level at certain stretches, duck-walk and crawl through holes, climb almost vertical walls and slide down slippery stones. The physical challenges will be worth it. You get to see lots of fascinating rock formations (speleothems) – stalactites, stalagmites, multi-tier ponds, volcano-like rocks, glittering crystal-covered walls and lots more. This Grand Tour stops halfway for a short rest break at the eastern side of the cave facing the North-South Expressway. Your return journey will take you entirely through the underground river.

You will have lots of fun crawling through holes and sliding down slippery stones before getting out to be greeted by the beautiful sight of the greenery outside. A complete journey of about 3.8km to and fro. Expect thrilling moments as you have the adrenalin-pumping spelunking adventure of your life time!

• For wet tour, wear comfortable clothes (t-shirt and long trousers will do) and sport shoes with good grip for better traction.
• A torch or headlamp is COMPULSORY as the lighting conditions at the river is very minimal and close to total darkness.
• A change of clothes, towel and sandals is definitely a must for wet tours. (You don’t have to bring these into the cave. Leave them in the bus or rent a locker as you will need them only after the tour.)
• You may take along your smartphone for photo taking, preferably sealed into a water-proof plastic casing to avoid getting wet soaked.
• It is a good idea to put other personal stuff in a small backpack.

Wonder.Food.Travel

The grand tour, gua tempurung, perak.

My tendency toward caving and other nature's activities keep on increase. Count me in if there will be another tour to any place and for sure, Gua tempurung is a must!

Hi, do you know if the showering facilities are clean?

Hi Chuf Tan, the showering facilities are very basic- when i was there, it was just a shower so bring your own toiletries and towel

Thanks for the reply! One more question: do you know how many shower cubicles are there? I'll be heading there soon with 8 other friends.

Hmm... i can't really remember- but i remember some might not be able to lock. May be they have repaired. I hope you and your friends will have a great time at the cave! I enjoyed much and i believe you will too. Thanks for stopping by!

9 Cave Temples (And Other Places) In Ipoh That You Should See

Ipoh’s cave temples are unique because they are partially built into the surrounding limestone hills that form the local landscape.

Apart from these temples, there are caves that are open to the public for visits. We have listed popular as well as lesser-known places in this post.

Come check them out when you are here!

Table of Contents:

• Perak Cave Temple
• Kek Lok Tong
• Sam Poh Tong Temple
• Nam Thean Tong Temple
• Ling Sen Tong Temple
• Guanyin Cave
• Dong Hua Cave Temple
• Tambun Cave
• Tempurung Cave

1. Perak Cave Temple

Perhaps the most famous of all the cave temples, Perak Cave Temple (or simply, Perak Tong) is impressive right from your first glimpse of it! Its  symmetrical architecture  and central staircase make it look like a grand Chinese-style mansion.

Not to mention, the magnificent limestone cliffs surrounding it!

Once inside, you can admire the stone formations that are the interior walls of the temple as well as the beautiful paintings on them.

And if you can muster the energy and don’t mind a workout:

You can climb all the way to the very  top of the temple  where you get a  lovely view of Ipoh below!

Note: The stairs to the hilltop pavilion (and hillside pavilions) are behind the main altar in the temple.

Read more about Perak Cave Temple .

• Opening Hours: 8am to 5pm (Stairs to the hilltop are closed at 4pm)
• Contact: +6011-2358 4126
• Entrance Fee: Free
• Remarks: Stairs are quite steep. Do be careful if you bring your kids!

2. Kek Lok Tong

The exterior of Kek Look Tong is notably less flashy than the other temple. But the inconspicuous outer appearance hides a  magnificent cavern  with benches and Buddhist and Taoist statues!

It’s cooler in the cave than outside. And you can view stalactites and stalagmites and other interesting rock formations up close inside the temple.

Altogether, the whole compound is around 12 acres . This includes a  well-maintained garden  at the back of the temple!

Visitors can take a paddle boat ride down the river outside of the cave temple. Or cycle around the cave to take in the scenery.

See more pictures of Kek Lok Tong .

• Opening Hours: 8am to 4:30pm
• Contact: +605-312 8112
• Entrance Fee: Free but donations are welcome
• The garden is best enjoyed in the cool of the early morning or in the late evenings
• Free parking
• Wheelchair-friendly
• You can buy fish food to feed the fish in the pond

3. Sam Poh Tong Temple

Sam Poh Tong temple sits quietly against a limestone hill somewhere along a secluded road in Gunung Rapat. It is roughly  5 to 6km  from Ipoh Old Town (a ~13-minute drive).

The caves of Sam Poh Tong serve as a resting place for ancestors, with plaques and urns for cremation ashes.

Right in front of the temple is a  beautiful, landscaped garden  with a  fishpond . While you are here, you should check out the exquisite white marble archway too.

You can go straight through the temple via a  natural tunnel  that leads out to the back. This is where there is an incredible  up-close view  of the limestone hill and a  tortoise pond !

Read more about Sam Poh Tong temple in Ipoh.

• Opening Hours: 8am to 1:30pm
• Contact: +605-255 2772
• Remarks: You can buy fresh vegetables/ fruit from a made-shift counter inside the temple to feed the tortoises at the back!

4. Nam Thean Tong Temple

Nam Thean Tong Temple is between Ling Sen Tong Temple and Sam Poh Tong Temple. Hence, it is convenient to check Nam Thean Tong Temple out while you are there.

Compared to other cave temples like Kek Lok Tong or Sam Poh Tong Temple though, Nam Thean Tong Temple is much smaller and less impressive.

After you pass through the high archway, there is a spacious car park in front of Nam Thean Tong Temple. The exterior of the temple features some colorful murals .

On site at the car park are some small shops where you can get refreshments or souvenirs too.

Next to the temple is a small but well-kept garden with a short hedge maze and a big gold statue in the center of it. There are also some raised ponds at the back of this garden with a little red bridge over one of the ponds.

It won’t take you long to explore the outside and inside as the temple interior is small too. It is cool inside the temple, and you will also be able to see some rock formations here.

• Location: Same row as Sam Poh Tong
• Opening Hours: 8am to 4:45pm

5. Ling Sen Tong Temple

If you’re making a visit to Sam Poh Tong, you will pass by Ling Sen Tong Temple first! And this temple is hard to miss with its typical  bright Taoist colors !

The temple is small (with no large prayer hall in a cave like other cave temples), but it has a  large open-air courtyard  with  statues and murals  of various Taoist religious figures.

Including the Goddess Kuan Yin who is the main deity here, and characters from  Chinese folklore ! There is a pond and a garden with a  large reclining Buddha  too.

Explore the side of the temple closest to the main road, and you’ll see a monkey king statue in a natural stone alcove.

Because of their proximity to each other, you should combine a visit to Ling Sen Tong Temple together with a visit to Sam Poh Tong!

• Opening Hours: 9am to 4pm
• Entrance Fee: Free but a donation is welcome
• Remarks: There are parking spaces in the temple compound.

6. Perak Guanyin Cave

More than 100 years old, Perak Guanyin Cave or Kwan Yin Tongis 10 minutes’ drive away from the previous two cave temples!

There are around  70 or so Goddess Kuan Yin  (Goddess of Mercy) here. As well as a pond that is made to resemble a  Japanese wishing fountain  with steppingstones to cross to the other side.

The main chamber utilizes the natural formation of Guanyin Cave and only the floor has been tiled up.

It’s all too easy to miss the stairs just by the side of the temple. These lead to a platform with a hefty Buddha statue in a seated position.

Couples who want a different scenery from a registration office can choose to get married here. As there are marriage registration services available!

• Opening Hours: 9am to 5:30pm
• Contact: +605-311 2451
• Remarks: This temple is bustling with activity on the 15th night of Chinese New Year – Chap Goh Mei or Chinese Valentines’ Day.

7. Dong Hua Cave Temple (东华洞)

You will have to climb up to this  red temple  that looks like it’s embedded into the face of a limestone hill.

However, the steep climb up is worth the panoramic views (and exercise) especially in the early morning when it’s not that hot yet!

The cooling chamber of the cave temple is peaceful and calm. Hardly any tourists come here so you’ll get to enjoy the  serenity alone .

And thus, the chamber is a nice and cosy location to visit after climbing up the cave side.

Plus, you can only see the impressive 100-year-old massive stalactite hanging from the cave’s ceiling from inside the temple!

Hardly any tourists come here so you’ll get to enjoy the serenity alone .

• Opening Hours: 8am to 5pm
• Contact: +6012-578 7748
• Remarks: Be very careful when you’re treading the stairs. There are around 150 steps!

8. Tambun Cave (Gua Tambun)

Hidden from view behind an army base:

Tambun cave is one of Ipoh’s best-kept secrets!

It takes some effort to find the place and reach the prehistoric cave drawings on the cliff side of a limestone hill so be prepared!

The paintings are well over a thousand years old so many of them are quite faded. But you don’t need to have an archaeologist background to be able to pick out a few!

See more photos of Tambun Cave and how to go.

• Opening Hours: 8am to 5:30pm

9. Tempurung Cave

Better known as Gua Tempurung, this astounding geographical marvel lies south of Ipoh in Gopeng.

To explore the cave, there are 4 tours you can choose from as visitors aren’t allowed in on their own!

Note: If you’re driving to Ipoh from Kuala Lumpur, you can detour here first at the Gopeng Interchange.

How To Get To These Cave Temples

If you’ve only staying in Ipoh for a while, plan your itinerary accordingly to include at least one of these!

A few of them are close to each other but don’t let that be your deciding factor to visit them. Quality is better than quantity.

By the way, some of these aren’t that easy to find or get to so if you need some help:

You can book a private tour to take you to these places and give you more local insight at the same time! Book an Ipoh tour with RayTheTour by sending them a message on WhatsApp !

It will take you a few days (maybe even a week!) to see all the beautiful temples in Ipoh! And each one has something that sets it apart from the others.

We’ve made it easier for you to select which ones you should visit with this list. Our personal favorites are Kek Lok Tong and Sam Poh Tong.

Mirror Lake (Tasik Cermin)

This attraction is mainly about the two lakes here and the added beauty of the surrounding limestone karsts. We highly recommend going for the informative boat tours for either lake. And for either tour that you choose, the boats will have to pass through manmade tunnels. Which is an interesting experience in itself.

Ipoh Attractions

What else does Ipoh have to offer besides its cave temples? The most accessible attractions are over at Ipoh Old Town but if you have the time, we strongly suggest leaving the city for the outskirts. Places like the TT5 Tin Dredge and Kellie’s Castle are worth the detour.

Keunikan dan Sejarah Gua Tempurung

Jelajah dan aktiviti gua tempurung, kemudahan dan maklumat gua tempurung, tiket dan harga masuk.

Gua Tempurung mengagumkan dengan panjang sekitar 3 kilometer, menjadikannya gua terpanjang di Semenanjung Malaysia.

Struktur gua ini terdiri daripada lima kubah besar yang membentuk bentuk yang menyerupai tempurung kelapa.

Setiap kubah mempamerkan formasi batu kapur yang unik dan memukau, termasuk stalaktit, stalagmit, kolom, heliktik, gour pool, rimstone pool, dan banyak lagi.

Selain itu, gua ini dilalui oleh sungai bawah tanah yang mengalir sepanjang 1.6 kilometer, menambah keindahan semulajadi Gua Tempurung.

Formasi Batu Kapur Gua Tempurung

Formasi batu kapur yang terdapat di Gua Tempurung adalah hasil dari proses geologi yang telah berlaku selama lebih daripada 250 juta tahun yang lalu.

Batu kapur ini terbentuk daripada endapan sedimen laut yang, sepanjang jangka masa yang panjang, mengeras menjadi batu.

Selanjutnya, air hujan yang meresap masuk ke dalam gua membawa asid karbonik yang berinteraksi dengan batu kapur, secara perlahan-lahan melarutkannya.

Proses berterusan ini, berlangsung selama beratus-ratus ribu tahun, telah menghasilkan pelbagai bentuk, tekstur, dan corak yang memukau pada permukaan batu kapur dalam Gua Tempurung.

Stalaktit dan Stalagmit Menakjubkan

Salah satu tarikan utama di Gua Tempurung adalah kehadiran formasi stalaktit dan stalagmit yang mengagumkan.

Stalaktit merujuk kepada formasi batu kapur yang menjulang dari siling gua, sementara stalagmit pula adalah formasi batu kapur yang tumbuh dari lantai gua.

Kedua-dua formasi ini terbentuk melalui proses berterusan di mana titisan air yang mengandungi kalsium karbonat mengendap secara perlahan di atas atau di bawah permukaan batu kapur.

Proses ini mengambil berjuta-juta tahun untuk membentuk struktur batu kapur yang indah dan unik ini.

Sejarah Geologi Gua

Sejarah geologi Gua Tempurung juga amat menarik. Gua ini dipercayai telah wujud sejak zaman Pleistosen, kira-kira 2 juta tahun yang lalu, dan terus berkekalan hingga zaman Holosen, sekitar 10,000 tahun yang lalu.

Sementara itu, pada zaman Holosen, gua ini menjadi tempat perlindungan bagi manusia primitif, yang meninggalkan jejak api dan alatan batu di dalam gua sebagai bukti kehadiran mereka.

Mengenali Sejarah Gua Tempurung dengan Lebih Dekat

Selain menjadi mercu tumpuan alam semulajadi, Gua Tempurung juga mempunyai nilai sejarah yang penting dalam perkembangan Malaysia. Jika anda nak tahu, pada zaman penjajahan komunis di Malaysia dahulu, gua ini digunakan sebagai tempat persembunyian oleh komunis bermula dari tahun 1950 sehinggalah pada tahun 1960. Disebabkan sejarah ini juga, ia berjaya memikat penyelidik dan pengkaji sejarah dan juga menarik minat ramai pengembara untuk menikmati misteri-misteri yang tersembunyi di dalamnya.

Bahkan, setelah sekian lama menjadi tempat persembunyian, pada tahun 1970, Gua Tempurung kemudiannya mengalami transformasi apabila ia dibangukan untuk dijadikan sebagai lombong bijih timah. Lombong yang dibina ini akhirnya menjadi penanda sejarah perubahan Malaysia terutama dari aspek ekonomi, di mana ia memainkan peranan penting dalam pertumbuhan industri negara.

Lokasi dan Pembentukan

Bagaimana Gua Tempurung boleh terbentuk? Kalau anda nak tahu, Gua Tempurung adalah gua batu kapur terbesar yang terletak di dalam Gunung Tempurung, yang merupakan jisim batu kapur yang mempunyai permukaan terbesar di Lembah Kinta. Ia terbentuk oleh aliran air yang berterusan dari timur, yang berasal dari kawasan granit dan berliku-liku yang dibentuk oleh Sungai Tempurung, iaitu sungai yang mengalir ke arah barat dari bukit granit utama dan mengukir jalan melalui gua. Anda boleh lihat aliran sungai yang jernih ini apabila memasuki Gua yang cukup indah ini.

Sungai bawah tanah ini secara konsisten memberi air ke dalam gua, menyumbang kepada pembentukannya dari masa ke masa. Dimensi gua, yang merangkumi panjang 1.2 km, termasuk pintu masuk timur yang terletak kira-kira 4 m di bawah paras tanah dan saluran keluar barat pada kira-kira 40 m di atas paras laut purata, menghasilkan garis lurus di dalamnya.

Pintu Masuk dan Keluar Gua

Pintu masuk ke gua tempurung berada di sebelah timur, menghadap Lebuhraya Utara-Selatan. Lantai pintu masuk adalah kira-kira 4 meter di bawah paras tanah, manakala ketinggian bumbung gua ini pula melonjak ke sekitar 7 meter. Manakala untuk pintu keluar, ia terletak di sebelah barat, dan mempunyai bumbung yang miring dan tajam yang mencapai ketinggian sehingga 17 meter. Struktur sistem gua ini membolehkan pengunjung meneroka biliknya dengan mudah, dengan kemudahan yang disediakan iaitu tangga dan sistem pencahayaan yang dipasang.

Gua Tempurung adalah sistem gua berbilang bilik, masing-masing dengan ciri dan formasi uniknya. Anda akan menjumpai bilik-bilik gua menunjukkan lengkung berbentuk busur yang mengarah ke utara, dengan jalan lurus dari pintu masuk di bahagian timur ke pintu keluar di bahagian barat.

Bilik-bilik yang terkenal ini dikenali sebagai “Gergasi Chambers”, “Alam Cavern”, dan “Fallen Warriors”, yang telah memperoleh nama-nama ini dari penjelajah terdahulu membolehkan anda untuk menyaksikan speleothems yang indah dan keajaiban geologi.

Evolusi Asal dan Landskap

Asal Gua Tempurung dipercayai dikaitkan dengan pembangunan landskap Lembah Kinta. Kajian menunjukkan  bahawa pembentukan gua mungkin bermula lebih dari satu juta tahun yang lalu ketika ia masih disambungkan ke jisim granit berdekatan dengan pengikis, kakisan pemeluwapan, dan keruntuhan batu telah memainkan peranan penting dalam membentuk ciri-ciri unik gua.

Sistem Gua dengan Lima Kubah Unik

Sistem gua ini mempunyai lima kubah yang luar biasa, masing-masing dengan daya unik serta tarikan tersendiri. Jom selami ruang-ruang yang memukau ini:

3. Tin Mine Cavern

Di sini, anda dapat menyaksikan sisa-sisa perlombongan timah yang ditinggalkan oleh pelombong awal yang dapat membari gambaran menarik ke masa lalu, dan memberikan peringatan mengenai warisan perlombongan yang kaya yang pernah wujud di kawasan ini.

4. Alam (Universe) Cavern

Dengan ketinggian mencecah 72 meter, Universe Cavern menawarkan pengalaman yang mengagumkan, menyerupai katedral. Keluasan gua ini benar-benar menakjubkan dengan panorama yang menarik, menjadikannya destinasi yang mesti dikunjungi oleh anda.

Peta Lokasi

Panduan Keselamatan Sebelum Mula Meneroka

Penerokaan gua adalah pengembaraan yang mendebarkan, tetapi ia juga boleh berisiko. Gua datang dengan cabaran dan bahaya unik yang tidak anda sangka-sangkakan. Untuk memastikan pengalaman anda sentiasa dalam keadaan selamat dan menyeronokkan, penyediaan keselamatan yang betul adalah penting.

Berikut adalah panduan ringkas untuk penerokaan gua yang selamat perlu anda titikberatkan iaitu:

1. Pergi dengan Kumpulan

Adalah lebih selamat untuk meneroka gua secara berkumpulan sekurang-kurangnya empat orang dan tidak lebih daripada lapan orang. Ingat, kanak-kanak tidak boleh memasuki gua tanpa pengawasan orang dewasa.

2. Maklumkan Orang Lain Rancangan Anda

Sebelum anda menuju ke dalam gua, pastikan seseorang di luar kumpulan anda mengetahui rancangan penerokaan anda. Maklumkan kepada keluarga dan rakan mengenai keberangkatan anda dan bila anda akan kembali. Langkah berjaga-jaga ini memastikan bahawa seseorang dapat memberi amaran kepada pihak berkuasa jika anda tidak kembali seperti yang dijadualkan.

3. Penyelidikan Gua

Walaupun sebahagian daripada keseronokan penerokaan gua adalah rasa penemuan, adalah penting untuk menyelidik gua terlebih dahulu. Memahami ciri unik gua dan potensi bahaya boleh membantu anda membuat persediaan yang lebih baik.

4. Peralatan Penting

Apabila bersiap sedia untuk penerokaan gua, pertimbangkan peralatan berikut yang disyorkan iaitu:

• Helmet: Topi keledar yang kukuh dengan tali dagu adalah suatu keharusan. Sumber cahaya utama anda harus dipasang di atas untuk memastikan tangan anda bebas bergerak.
• Lampu tambahan: Bawa sekurang-kurangnya dua sumber cahaya tambahan, sebaik-baiknya lampu suluh kalis air. Penyimpanan lampu tambahan ini adalah penting dalam kes kegagalan cahaya utama.
• Sarung tangan: Lindungi tangan anda daripada luka dan calar dengan sarung tangan.
• Pad lutut dan siku: Gua selalunya melibatkan aktiviti merangkak melalui ruang yang sempit, jadi pad ini boleh menjadi penyelamat untuk keselesaan dan perlindungan.
• Pek gua: Gunakan pek fanny yang kukuh atau beg galas tentera lama untuk membawa peralatan tambahan, seperti air, makanan, bateri, beg plastik dan keperluan lain.
• Makanan dan air: Pek padat, makanan bertenaga tinggi seperti bar kuasa. Pastikan anda mempunyai air yang mencukupi dan bekalan tambahan sekiranya penerokaan anda mengambil masa lebih lama daripada yang dijangkakan atau jika anda tersesat.
