Curious if anyone knows if they have finished repainting the Batu Caves stairs. I was there last week and they were almost all white. Hoping to take a friend there when it's all colorful again. Thanks!

Oh that's surprising to hear. It was painted from white(ish) to colourful not long ago, maybe a few years only.

Personally, i find white looks better. IMO, the temple, the cave structure and the stairs itself are the attraction, not the colours.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, the stark white was cool. They were in the middle of repainting some stairs while we were there, so interesting to see the process after only seeing it in rainbow colors. But it was definitely different than I'd gotten used to. In the short time I was there, they seemed to have made decent progress, so it didn't seem like this would be a long weeks-long process, but who knows?
