Singapore: Just a Quick Escape

... Our last pitstop for our Southeast Asia trip!

From a day tour in Melaka, we head on to Singapore. Singapore is a 5-hour bus ride from Melaka.

... We got a 6pm bus ticket to Singapore and we arrived at around 11pm. Running from immigration to immigration with our luggages with us is so tiring but great experience!! (^_^)

Almost midnight and still we are in the street of Singapore finding a good and cheap hotel and we found ourselves checking-in @ V Hotel.

... And our Singapore journey begins!! :)

Malaysia: Melaka

... Our next destination for our Southeast Asia Trip Melaka. A day tour before heading to Singapore.

Melaka a diversed city in Malaysia and a UNESCO heritage site. It is 2 hours away from Kuala Lumpur but we did it at 4 hours because of heavy traffic in the expressway. 


Melaka is very different from Kuala Lumpur. Everything is in slow paced. The architecture has a taste of European culture. 



Tryks are cutely dressed in Melaka. Don't know how much does it cost to ride one. (Just like tuk-tuk in Thailand) (^_^)

Old arcitectures are being preserved in the area. 



And looking at the river it looks like you were in Venice.

Kuala Lumpur: Batu Cave

.... Batu Cave is a limestone hill with a 272 steps. It is almost an hour away from the busy KL city scene.

.... In front of the cave lies the statue of Lord Murugan which is a Hindu lord. 


.... Hindus go up to the hill barefoot with their prayers to Lord Murugan will be granted.

.... Inside the cave is an active temple where Hindus offer their prayers.

Going up is so tiring we had a lot of stops along the way and it gives us moment to take pictures..... (^_^)
