Batu Caves
Limestone caves and the coloured staircase, a Hindu sanctuary. Its own day — do not jam it with Genting or Putrajaya.

Klang Valley day trips
Batu Caves one day, Putrajaya another half-day. Not the same day as Genting.

Lord Murugan Statue
The golden Murugan in front of the cave mouth — the first photo of the Batu Caves day. Then climb; do not detour into another town.

Dark Cave
A guided ecological cave, not the same visit as the temple cave above. Tickets and slots are on site; if you book this, do not add Genting's cable cars.

Ramayana Cave
Cave paintings and figures beside the main temple — a side stop, not its own day. Descend to Kuala Lumpur; Putrajaya is separate.

Putra Mosque
The rose-coloured mosque facing Putra Square and the lake. Putrajaya is another half-day — not the same day as Batu Caves.

Putra Bridge
The pink arch between the mosque and the square. Walk it — do not taxi from one end to the other.

Putra Square
The ceremonial square on the administrative axis — good for the scale of the buildings, useless as a shopping plan. Then either the botanical garden or the cruise, not both jammed.

Putrajaya Botanical Garden
Lakeside gardens with actual shade. The green hour of a Putrajaya half-day — do not add Genting.

Putrajaya Lake Cruise
The lake boat, for the mosque and bridges from the water. Sailings follow the pier that day; then back to Sentral — Genting is not 'on the way'.

Iron Mosque
Tuanku Mizan, steel and a cooled cloister, at the other end of Putrajaya. Pick this or the rose mosque as the main visit — do not rush both.

Morocco Pavilion
The Moroccan-style building on the lake — a façade photo, then go. Not a shopping city, and not a reason to stay an extra day.
