In conjunction with Lunar New Year 2012, Thien Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur had staged a similar show. Though on a much smaller scale, the show was no less interesting…
The temple…
Playing with zoom…
Here you go, the show of lights…
As in the past years, Thien Hou Temple was decorated with large number of lanterns…
One thing I like about Thien Hou Temple is that devotees are told to burn just 4 joss sticks – one for the Deity of Haven, and one for each of the three in-house deities. Traditionally, Chinese burn 3 joss sticks for every deity. By burning fewer joss sticks, Thien Hou Temple is considerably less smoky. This is good for the health of the people and the environment…
have not been to this temple for ages.. and no wonder i thought i saw some spot lights running across the sky..
ReplyDeletei think it's beautifully lit deco is nice enough, with or without the "symphony of lights" performance.. and the red lanterns surely is a good catch for me..
ReplyDeletetrue, less joss stick is better.. we just need something to symbolize and everything turns to get simplified nowadays.. healthier and more environmental friendly..
ReplyDeleteI should visit this place if I am in KL.
ReplyDeleteI remember that temple! It looks really cool with all the lights. It is going to stay like that or is it just around Chinese New Year?

ReplyDeleteOnly during CNY.
Huh? Got Symphony Of Lights at Thean Hou Temple?
ReplyDeleteI like the Symphony Of Lights in Hong Kong! : )
ReplyDeleteI have yet to go to Thean Hou Temple at night!
ReplyDeleteAnd you were there to catch the Symphony of Lights show? How nice!
ReplyDeletejoss sticks are actually not necessary. just put the palms together and pray. that's the best way.
ReplyDeleteyou just gave me an idea to play with zoom while shooting at night! cool pic!
I only got to know about this Symphony of lights through drama. :p
ReplyDeletewei wei...how r u?
ReplyDeleteHello KS, how are you? Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. Much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI'd like to inquire about doing a sponsored blog post - about 150-300 words that talks a little bit about Immigration Visas and links back to our site http://rapidvisa.com. We are a immigration visa company and thought we might be a good fit for your readers/visitors on http://2point8.blogspot.com
Here's a list of some blog post titles we've done in the past:
- How to Get Your Marriage Visa
- Things To Know Before Applying For Your Immigration Visa
- How to Get Help With Your Immigration Process
Our budget is around $15 for the post. Is this something you'd be open to?
Also we might be interested in a small banner ad if the price is right.
Our budget is $40/year - something like this:

Let me know if you'd be open to either or both of these.
Also if you have some other sites just send them over and we might be interested in doing a sponsored post on there as well!
Regards,
Phil

Beautiful pictures, KS! Beyond the beauty, though, I find the subject rather painful when I think of what we humans do to the earth with our wonderful inventions. Thanks for the post.
ReplyDeleteHello KS! I certainly agree with what you said about the Malaysia Pad.
ReplyDeleteHow are you? Please continue blogging.
