Colourful traditions to mark Wesak Day


Bright beauties: Devotees Tan Wenxin, 10, and Lai Lin Yoong, 44, lighting lotus-shaped candles for prayers in the shrine hall of the Malaysian Buddhist Association in Burmah Road, Penang.

RICH is the diversity of Buddhist traditions practised in Penang, and some of them are very unique.

Thousands of Buddhists took part in myriad activities of Chinese, Indian and Thai origins on Wesak Day yesterday.
