GEORGE TOWN: The golden and silver chariots for Thaipusam have both departed one after the other for the long procession across the city, a journey that is expected to take an entire day to reach their destinations.
The golden chariot, which carries Lord Murugan's vel (spear) left the Sri Maha Mariammam Temple at Queen Street at 5.20am Wednesday (Jan 25) and will make its way to Arulmigu Sri Bala Thandayuthapani Waterfall Hilltop Temple in Jalan Kebun Bunga.
