Not surprising if you know Malaysia, but it is very hard to figure out where this is. This is the real location of the museum despite what Google will tell you. The museum is interesting but we could not figure out how to find the actual, real cave sites. We even searched using the coordinates provided on the UNESCO site but had no luck. It is rumored that you can set up a car to take you to all 4 sites from the museum. As of May 2015, here were no maps of the sites for you to take or anyone who spoke English to help you. Gorgeous drive to the museum though with a lot of cool (non UNESCO) things to do.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/3000428792/aff92479-2cab-4158-af29-446d1d3222d3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) #### Explore ancient limestone caves, visit spectacular royal palaces and sunbathe on unspoiled sandy stretches in the country’s fourth-largest state. Perak is known for its intriguing architectural gems, labyrinthine caves and unspoiled jungle terrain. Its capital city reveals the history of the region, while other towns contain pagodas, parks and zoos. Try the excellent fusion cuisines in the cities and travel to an idyllic island. Visit fascinating attractions in historic Kuala Kangsar. It holds the Istana Iskandariah palace of the Sultan of Perak and the Ubudiah Mosque. Wander around the Taiping Lake Gardens in nearby Taiping. Get a sense of local culture with a stay in the state capital, Ipoh. See its most impressive sights, such as Kellie’s Castle, a never-finished structure built by a Scottish businessman. Explore markets and try local delicacies combining Malay, Indian and Chinese influences. A popular dish is ipoh sar hor, consisting of prawns, chicken and noodles. Head to the ocean for excellent seafood served at the coastal stalls in Lumut. Enjoy the year-round tropical climate at the beach and take a trip to scenic Marina Island. Visit during the dry season, in June and July. Just across the water is picturesque Pangkor Island, one of the most visited parts of the state by vacationers. Choose from luxury lodgings, spend time in the sleepy fishing villages and go scuba diving and snorkeling in the clear water. Travel inland to appreciate the state’s eclectic terrain. Board a river cruise with a guide in Belum Temenggor forest reserve, perhaps the world’s oldest rainforest. The large and unspoiled area contains tigers, rhinos and over 3,000 flowering plant species. Travel south to one of the country’s largest limestone caves, Tempurung Cave. Continue south to relax in Sungai Klah Hot Springs Park. Find Perak on the western part of mainland Malaysia. Take a train or internal flight from Kuala Lumpur, which is 170 miles (270 kilometers) south of Taiping. Get around the state on the paved roads via buses. Perak is an exotic blend of rainforest, sophisticated towns and sunny beaches with seafood stalls. ### Popular cities in Perak [Ipoh Known for Budget, Hot springs and Coffee ](https://expedia.ca/Ipoh.dx1618) Come to Ipoh and enjoy its coffee, hot springs, and theme park. ## Reasons to visit - Concubine Lane - Lost World Tambun - Kek Lok Tong [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Ipoh.dx1618)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Ipoh-Hotels.d1618.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Taiping Known for Lakes, Zoo and Safaris ](https://expedia.ca/Taiping.dx10086) Explore Taiping: its lake views, zoo, water park, and more! ## Reasons to visit - Zoo Taiping & Night Safari - Taiping Lake Gardens - Bukit Larut [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Taiping.dx10086)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Taiping-Hotels.d10086.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Pangkor Island Known for Beaches, Swimming and Islands ](https://expedia.ca/Pangkor-Island.dx9516) Come to Pangkor Island and enjoy its island views, beaches, and temples. ## Reasons to visit - Coral Beach - Pantai Pasir Bogak [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Pangkor-Island.dx9516)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Pangkor-Island-Hotels.d9516.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Lumut Known for Beaches, Swimming and Marinas ](https://expedia.ca/Lumut.dx602840) Relaxing Lumut awaits: its beaches, oceanfront, and more! ## Reasons to visit - Teluk Batik Beach [Explore city](https://expedia.ca/Lumut.dx602840)[Find hotels](https://expedia.ca/Lumut-Hotels.d602840.Travel-Guide-Hotels) [Pangkor Laut Known for Dining, Friendly people and Beaches ](https://expedia.ca/Pangkor-Laut.dx2809) Enjoy a relaxing resort stay on this private island with its iconic luxury villas perched on stilts over the Malacca Straits.
