Wang Burma Cave
The most popular cave in Perlis is Wang Burma Cave (Malays: Gua Wang Burma),
a cave system that has become the main attraction of the Wang Kelian State Park
within the Perlis State Park.
Known for its streams and exotic species of insects and fungi, the cave system
is divided into two main caves: The less challenging and more scenic one is Wang
Burma 1, with its unique rock formations comprising of stalactites, stalagmites
and columns, and Wang Burma 2, which is physically and mentally challenging with
its dark hooks and turns, of narrow passages and muddy tunnels, you will need to
crawl or squeeze your way through to reach the amazing water-worn rock
formations in the inner part of the cave.
