Tenth-Stop

#342
16th September


Happy Malaysia Day!
Today I'm not gonna post anything about Malaysia Day, but I'm just recover something missed.
Had I ever said that I will attend an event in the previous post?
Yup, this is what I'm going to talk about.
This event is known as "Malaysia Twa Peh Kong Festival", in Chinese “大伯公节”.
This year, the event is held in Penang, eventually this would be very lively since Penang is very nice and full with culture.
Penang lang like me really like to watch parade, so why not I share photos that I took here?

Forgot to say, this would be the tenth-stop for my tour around Penang, but since this event could be held in anywhere around Malaysia, so it would not always in Penang, then make sure you have to search for information for this festival.

Alright, here I'll present the photos, but there are more than 50 cars, the parade stretched about more than 2.5 km. I dunno why, even though everyone already knew about this parade, got ppl send message through Facebook, dun use this road dun use that road, but still very serious traffic jam still occurred la. Whatever, 这就是所谓的热闹!!!

Talk so much, photos time! There are total of 209 photos but I just choose some interesting wan, abo this post will be very very long.

 This is Burma Road, where the parade will pass by this road (look at the crowd).

 This band is from Heng Ee High School.

 First car to arrive.

 More and more cars passed by. The planks looks familiar like in 包青天.

 Fancy Chinese lanterns as decoration.

 This car from 北海斗母宫 was so fancy in design and decoration.

 Most of the cars are in neon lights.

 DRAGONS!!!!

 This is the 34th car, by that time my leg started sour dy. XD

 This car designed in boat style.

 The mandarin tree truly representing what area are they came from.

 One of the most mesmerizing one... Saw the smoke?

 Haha! Truly, this dragon can split "smoke" (dry ice) from its mouth.

 The words from those flags were too chim for me, dunno what are the meaning XD

 重头戏来了!!! This car is filled with much of 大伯公, see it at the right-corner side?

The last one and also full with nice decorations.

Okay after the last car passed by me, behind it was crowded with cars, motors......
WTH the number was like... OMG ARE YOU SERIOUS!? Traffic jam like I never seen before.
Like during hari perayaan traffic jam on highway.

Okay back home was a very terrific condition, fortunately my dad used motor to take me to watch this parade cuz' motor can cut to here cut to there mah.
If use car I dunno how long are we going to stuck there cuz' the parade ended around 11 PM until 12 AM!!!!!!!

Oh well, that's show how really the condition would be if any cultural event held in Penang.
Anyway, I LOVE PENANG!!!
Alright, goodbye ;)
