Gua Tempurung cave interior showing tourists admiring the rock formations


Gua Tempurung is in Gopeng, Perak, Malaysia. It is popular among spelunkers, or caving enthusiasts. More than 3 km long, it is one of the longest caves in Peninsula Malaysia. Part of it has been developed as a show cave with electric lighting and walkways and there are a range of tours of different lengths and difficulty. A fine river cave, the river passage runs about km through the hill. There are three very large chambers and some spectacular stalactites and stalagmites.
