Boardwalk in the cave
Sun Cave

We did a daytrip from Miri to the Niah Caves. Here you will find thousands of Swifts nesting on the ceiling (a pity that there nests are being "harvested" for bird nest soup - not sure whether I enjoy that by the way) and bats flying around while producing sonar sounds. In the caves it is pitch dark so you need a torch light to get along. In the light you can see trizillions of bugs flying around you - so better not watch to closely and be happy for your ample usage of DEET (50%).
Because we were the only visitors it was also quite silent (except for the birds and bats that is) The humidity was even higher then in Bako Park so we were soaked when leaving the cave.
