Devotees gather at Batu Caves ahead of Thaipusam

Helan (left) and Bruce Wang visited Batu Caves on Thursday (Feb 2) night. Wang, who is from New Zealand, said it was his first time and he was fascinated by the cave.

THE Batu Caves temple attracts devotees both day and night in conjunction with the Thaipusam celebration this Sunday (Feb 5).

Some prefer visiting the temple at night to avoid the crowd in the daytime.
