Lost World Hot Springs at Ipoh is a dramatic natural hot spring feature within the Sunway Lost World of Tambun theme park in Ipoh, Perak state, Malaysia, where oligomineral geothermal waters emerge from the base of the spectacular limestone karst towers that define the Kinta Valley's famous geological landscape. The hot springs, feeding indoor and outdoor thermal pools within the adventure park, are surrounded by towering white limestone cliffs riddled with caves, creating a visually spectacular karst-thermal environment unique in Southeast Asia's theme park landscape. Ipoh's Kinta Valley karst, one of the world's most dramatic tower karst landscapes, is also celebrated for its extraordinary concentration of cave temples and the distinctive Ipoh culinary culture — white coffee, bean sprout chicken, and dim sum — that makes this industrial city Malaysia's most underrated food destination.

Insider tip — Lost World Hot Springs in Ipoh is tucked beneath limestone karst cliffs in the Sunway Lost World of Tambun theme park, where thermal water floods into tiered pools at the base of dramatic grey pinnacles. The geothermal source is one of the few in lowland Perak and produces consistently warm water year-round. Stay after park hours during night bathing sessions when the karst walls are dramatically lit.
