Gua Tempurung

Believed to have existed since 8000 BC, Gua Tempurung is probably the largest natural limestone cave in Malaysia. Situated about 24km from Ipoh, the cave stretches for 1.5km and is made up of five huge domes whose ceilings resemble coconut shells. Each dome has different formations of stalagmites and stalactites as well as differing temperatures, water level, content of limestone and marble.
