Ramayana Cave - Suyambu Lingam — Attraction in Selayang Municipal Council

⚠️WARNING FEMALE VISITORS. When entering from the Grab drop-off, we were immediately ushered into this side. We don’t mind supporting local businesses or attractions since I don’t think the price was unreasonable for entry but the guide in this photo made the experience very unpleasant.

It was at the highest cave on the right side while climbing up. This guide touched my friend and I inappropriately as he was “helping” us to climb behind the blue-green Rama Statue. At first I thought it was an accident as it happened to me twice but as I was sitting outside with my friend, wearing our shoes. I told her I’m not willing to give a tip as he touched me inappropriately and I wasn’t sure if it was accidental until she told me that it happened to her as well and he did it to her at least thrice.

I think there’s a very clear difference between touching/holding one’s shoulder or waist to help them climb through uneven grounds but there is NO NEED to touch the chest area OR GRAB OUR BODY.

I immediately went down to tell an older Indian lady about my experience and she was very helpful in informing her boss and management. I’m grateful that they heard me out and apologised but it was a very hurtful experience as I thought this was a respected place where people come to visit and learn more about the religious history.

Overall, I think it was an okay attraction to visit if you like caves and neon lights with bits of history of Sri Ramayana but I would avoid letting the guides take pictures for us or to...

Ramayana Cave - Suyambu Lingam is a hidden gem located at the base of Batu Caves in Kuala Lumpur, offering a unique and spiritual experience. This cave is dedicated to the epic Hindu tale of the Ramayana, and its colorful and vibrant depictions of the story make it a must-visit spot for culture and mythology enthusiasts.

As you enter, you’ll be greeted by a massive, vibrant statue of Hanuman, the monkey god, standing guard outside. Inside the cave, the walls and pathways are lined with intricately crafted statues and murals narrating scenes from the Ramayana. The atmosphere is mystical, with dim lighting enhancing the colorful displays and giving the space a serene, otherworldly feel.

The highlight of the cave is the Suyambu Lingam, a naturally formed sacred symbol that holds deep spiritual significance for Hindu devotees. Visitors are encouraged to explore the entire cave to appreciate its artistic and cultural depth.

Ramayana story beautifully crafted limestone cave . Entrance fee is RM5 . You will be greeted with Geetha Upadesha which means meaningful quote from bhavagad Gita & you will see big Vishnu statue near the cave . As soon you enter the cave complete silence . A cool breeze will make walking pleasurable. Be mindful of steps as after rains it quite slippery in the cave . Several statue with simple storyline makes us recreate Ramayana story in fun and engaging way . I will just highlight to the management that please off the LED light.

Careful when rains as natural water drops...
