A Treasure Called Gunung Senyum

I’ve been a regular camper (thrice) at this place enshrouded in the depths of Temerloh. 25 caves, all “conveniently” congregated at a single area, making this one of the best places for cave exploration in West Malaysia. None of the commercial hoopla that caves in Perak provide. This is secluded. It was back in 1993 during my school camping trip that I learned about these caves. Am thinking of a “homecoming” trip in March 2007. Wanna join? 
Gunung Senyum is on the left and Gunung Jebak Puyuh is on the right
Check out the number of caves to explore. I only covered approx 18 caves.

Can’t remember what cave this was…
Looks like a painting, doesn’t it?
In awe of the view
Surrealism
Batman?

Ohh beautiful rocks formation!
Unfortunately I don’t like gua. Scare the living hell out of me. I associate gua with horror movies. Hahaha
btw, I got a place to stay at Mt KK through a travel package.

Jemima Without a doubt, Mulu is the best. But for those of us who destined to remain in West Malaysia, this is probably it.
tihtahpah Indeed. We need to rope in a couple of new faces.

Beautiful pictures of the caves! Too bad I’m stuck here in Sabah. And yes, I think Mulu caves are the nicest, too!

Hey Dude, You went there without me back in year 1993. Well a twist of event in 1992 have changed everything in a single day. My new school back then didn’t organise those adventure trips. What a miss. Malaysia have more to offer than anyone else can imagine. But unfortunately we have dont have many annual leaves like goverment servant

Izad Definitely underrated, which is good, else it’ll be too commercialized like those caves in Perak. If you wanna relive your memories, give me a holla…
philters Hope you would be able to join us. The more the merrier!
