Mulu Caves- Malaysia-2009

We recently spent 3 days the Mulu Caves in the Gunung National Park Sarawak, staying in luxury at the Resort. (Remember to click on the photos to enlarge them)

The Mulu Resort


The Mulu Caves National Park  is a UNESCO World Hertiage Site as it has one of the world's most extensive cave system, the world's largest cave chamber and passage, the razor sharp limestone pinnacles and a rainforest walkway and Canopy Walk.

We visited the 4 of the famous caves and very bravely walked on the swinging Canopy 40m above the rainforest.

We also visited a local village market and a longhouse.

At dusk we watched the millions of bats flying out of the caves. Then treked 3 km back to our luxury resort where we enjoyed a buffet dinner and a colourful Cultural Performance.
