Thaipusam 2010
Thaipusam procession at Batu Caves
Finally got to attend one of the biggest yearly events in Malaysia. We set off at 5am and thanks to Gigi for helping me figuring out the route (end up didn't use that as we fear the congestion due to procession) as well as owj for suggesting to use MRR2. We parked quite a distance away and walked to the main gate following the crowd cause we were blur XD
Along the way, there were hair shaving booths, Indian snacks stalls and we see throngs of people (mainly women folk) carrying palkudams or milk pots. At the base of the 272 steps, dividers were set up to ease the flow of crowds. Not knowing that the path I was standing on eventually became the main path for the procession to pass by. The men and some women who are in a trance happened right before my eyes! It was an exciting experience to be a part of this event. Shall continue with more photos after my tests~
