Temple to hold virtual activities for festival


All lit up. Thousands of lanterns illuminate the Thean Hou Temple for the upcoming Chinese New Year celebrations. While the temple is usually open to the public, it has closed its doors due to the MCO. - GLENN GUAN/The Star

THERE may not be any visitors at the iconic Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur this Chinese New Year, but this has not stopped the temple authorities from going all out to celebrate the festival.

Known for its spectacular red lantern displays and other cultural events during the Chinese New Year period, this year will certainly be a departure from previous ones.
