Ipoh is very famous for its caves, and temples in the cave, Perak Cave is the best of all the caves I guess. I guess it's because you can hike to the top of the hill where you can't in others. Perak Cave is a Buddha temple cave, as one can see Huge Buddha statues and lots of magnificent drawings of the goddesses and gods on the cave wall and so one can do chanting, prayers, and some "exercise", walking up the steep stone stairs case that leads to the top of the rocky hill. Its not too high and laborious for most, but definitely not an easy one.
The Stairs connecting to the hill top is only open for public from 9 am to 4 pm only
The Monkeys in the cave are rather tame, they don't approach and snatch visitors' possessions or ask for food. I guess may be they have the teaching from Buddha or they just simply get used to visitors.
This is the best sight seeing point of the rocky hill. I don't post any photo about the scene from just because the cave is located beside an industrial area, nothing so cool about factories and smoke emitted from them and I think it is not high enough to to get a wider view of the city.
