It’s easy, just get the KTM Kommuter train from KL Sentral station to Batu Caves. It takes just 26 minutes to get to the caves from KL Sentral and it’s about a two-minute walk to the cave complex from the station.\nAlso, read the signs on the platform carefully – trains go in both directions from each platform. We got on the wrong one on our first attempt."},{"type":"img","content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FEzXWYUZl2qDgHWucwKuZ%2F131.jpg?alt=media&token=89c1a41d-7e01-496f-a343-a6a8ba246b6b"}]},{"address":"Cendol Durian Runtuh","location":{"longitudeDelta":0.14321712068773834,"latitudeDelta":0.09219986310369421,"latitude":3.204239350889057,"longitude":101.72238010000001},"media":[{"type":"link","content":"https://goo.gl/maps/1P8VNx8ENCkpW5Wt7"},{"type":"text","content":"# Eat Durian\nDurian is a large spiky fruit that you see sold all over Kuala Lumpur.
