Gua Tempurung cave interior showing tourists admiring the ground marble stream under the walkway


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.
