    This is a place I’ve always wanted to visit. Even more now that I’ve read your post!

    Spectacular! Worth the effort. I know I’d be huffing and puffing right there with you.

    Great post! We had a chance to visit a few months ago and the monkeys were EVERYWHERE! They were stealing sunglasses, purses, cans of soda from children, and generally causing hilarious mayhem. Cheryl climbed the steps while I stayed behind to take pics of their antics…couldn’t stop laughing. However the caves and significance of this holy place is definitely something not to miss while in KL. Glad you decided to give those steps a go! 🙂

      They were much calmer while we were there but cute as ever! I’m so glad I did as well!

    After walking 300km of the Camino, I would totally take on 300 steps! Glad the pain was worth it in the end – looks pretty awesome.

      Yeah 300 steps would be nothing for you. 😉

    That first photo looks terrifying. I’ve heard of the Bantu Caves before and it seems like it was worth the trek for you.

    Fascinating place – I’ve seen photos but this is the 1st first-hand experience I’ve read. That’s a lot of stairs though! Reminds me of the 500 stairs to Vernal Falls in Yosemite – brutal, but worth it.

      So many stairs! And hot & humid.

    I love this… some of the best moments in travel (and life) are worth suffering for. 🙂

      At first I was disappointed they didn’t have the cable car they had been talking about, but I’m not sure that wouldn’t adversely affect the overall feel. There’s something about climbing a small mountain that adds to a shrine’s ambiance.
