When we
talk about Perak, what will be first come in your mind? Food heaven? Mountain?
Today we would like to recommend a place for all of you here. We will listed this
place as my top 10 places that we should go in Perak. It is Gua Tempurung, Gopeng, Perak. Me and my bunch of friends had heard of this cave for quite some time before but we didn’t really visited it until today.
Me and my group of friends just used around 15 minutes to reach the destination.
It is because it very near from our campus to Gua Tempurung.

When we reached the Gua Tempurung, we went to the information counter to ask for the tour packages and we decided travel to tour 2 (Top Of The World) packages which cost RM 12.00 per person.There are other tour packages available too. For example
Tour 1 is Golden Flow-stone,
tour 3 is Top of the world& River Adventure and
tour 4 is Grand Tour.
The level of difficulty is increasing from Tour 1 to Tour 4 which means you need to spend more time and effort. This Tour 2 package we need to use around 1 hour and 45 minutes to walk from the entrance to Top of the World at platform 5 and return .

Before we go in, there is a guide tell us about the history of the Gua Tempurung. After and we know that Gua Tempurung (Tempurung Cave) has existed since early 8000 B.C. and it is
one of the larger cave systems found in the scenic limestone hills of Perak.
In fact, it is the largest natural limestone structure in Peninsular Malaysia.

When we go in we feel like we are living in a jungle. It is because everyone inside the cave will lose phone signal and then we start our journey.

.

After some time we reach Platform 4. We found this special area, because you can feel the cold wind .
At last we did it !!!
To the last platform for our journey, which is Platform 5. We spend around 1 hours 30 minutes to reach the Top of the World. This is end of our Tour 2 package, if we go further we need to buy Tour 3 or 4 packages. It is more challenging in Tour 3 and 4 because we will get wet in that tour.
We feel very happy and exhausted in this trip. This trip has widen our view. I hope that we can come back again next time to challenge the Tour 3 or 4. Feel free to commend and ask anything you want to know about this trip!
