Early morning at Waterfall Road
清晨到瀑布路 ...
January 20th, 2011 Penang Thaipusam at Waterfall Road (4)
槟城大宝森节 ...
This is the second day of Thaipusam in Penang, the procession of the spiritual
journey from Little India Georgetown would have reached here the previous night ...
I reached here very early at 6 am and too many are already here earlier ...
Waterfall road is a very long road, it is adorned with various booths
for prayers as devotees hiked to the main temple ...
Images of Hindu Gods are everyhwere ...
There were no Kavadi's early in the morning, but
devotees carrying milk as offerings to the main temple ...
It is not easy to carry a bucket of milk like this bare-footed for
a few kilometers ...
a few kilometers ...
As the day breaks, huge crowds are everywhere on the WaterRoad
leading to the temple and families are preparing for their own
journey of milk offerings ...
