Mother Nature always loves to surprise us with awesome creations and a good example of this is the magnificent razor-sharp limestone formations that are located halfway up the slopes of Gunung Api. However, getting a good view of these 45-metre structures is not for the faint-hearted because the trek up the mountain is rather challenging.

You have to sit a boat out with the tour guide to get to this mysterious beach where you can have the time of your life taking endless shots of the clear blue sky reflected against the sea. The half day tour to this beach needs to be booked in advance though as it only appears four days before and after the 1st and 15th of the lunar month. That’s because the tides have to be aligned!

Since Malaysia is a melting pot of cultures, it is not surprising that one of the Instagrammable spots is a religious place of worship. This temple proudly displays a huge sitting Buddha statue that measures 30 metres high and is similarly sized to the famous Buddha statue in Hong Kong’s Lantau Island. No need to go so far, Malaysia also got!

More than 90 per cent of Terengganu’s population are Muslims, therefore it is not surprising that they have an Islamic Heritage Park, which is where the Crystal Mosque is located. The imposing mosque is thought to be one of the most beautiful mosques in the world, and is so named because it is made predominantly from glass and steel. What a beauty!

Tip: When the sunlight reflects on the mosque’s exterior surfaces, that’s one of the best shots you can take for your Instagram feed. Better yet, you could time your arrival there when night falls ’cause that’s when the colourful lights surrounding the mosque breathes life into the building, and turns it into a spectacular display.

 

9. Tebrau Glass Temple, Johor

Another splendid place of worship that you can visit for your wanderlust photos is the Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman temple, which has earned a place of honour in the Malaysia Book of Records in May 2010 as the first and only glass temple! The inspiration to renovate the temple came after its guru was struck by the beauty of a Thai temple that used glass as well.
