Chinese New Year events @ KL Thean Hou Temple (吉隆坡天后宫新春活动)

Hello dear Steemians,

Every Lunar New Year, the Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur held many new spring events for visitors to participate and celebrate this incomparable festival. We also took the opportunity to join the event and pray for good luck for the coming year.

大家好!

每年的农历新年，吉隆坡天后宫都举办很多新春活动，让信徒和参观寺庙的游客们参与这无比热闹的佳节庆典。我们也趁次机会，到吉隆坡天后宫为来年祈福吉祥平安。

The red lanterns hang over the roofs of the Thean Hou Temple which’s adding a strong Lunar New Year atmosphere.

红彤彤的灯笼高高挂让吉隆坡天后宫，增添强烈的农历新年气氛。

This Lunar New Year’s weather is very good, Thean Hou Temple is very crowded.

今年农历新年的天气很好，风和日丽，天后宫里人山人海，寺里挤满了好多人。

In the Year of the Pig, the theme of Eight Precepts Coming. From the first day to 5^th day of Lunar New Year, there are various New Year activities for public to participate

猪猪年，新春活动的主题是八戒来啦，今年初一到十五元宵，都有各种新春活动，让大众参与。

Due to Lunar New Year events, the temple management also built a new outdoor landscape with planted many shrubs and groundcovers to enhance the beauty of the temple garden.

为了新年新春活动，寺庙也新建了户外花园，种植新的灌木和花草，为寺庙园林提升美观。

On the other side of the temple, a rotating lotus light feature was added to allow the public to light up and pray. The lotus lights are placed neatly on the light feature, shinning and dazzling. I also offered a lotus light in front of Buddha, under blessing of Buddha and Bodhisattva, pray for peace of the world, country, and prosperity of family and happiness of everyone.

寺庙的一旁，加设了转动莲花灯塔，让信徒点灯祈福。一个个的莲花灯，整齐摆放着灯塔座上，光芒四射，非常耀眼。我也在佛前点了个莲花灯，祈愿佛菩萨加持，新的一年，世界和平，国泰民安，合家兴旺，人人安康，幸福。

We met a painter, who sat in the corner of the temple to do painting.

我们遇见一位画家，坐在寺庙的一角，提笔作画。

There was a lion dance performance at 11am in the morning, the temple was getting crowded.

早上11点正有舞狮表演，寺里出现很多人，挤得水泄不通， 香火旺盛。

The lion dances walked in the temple to cult in front of Guanyin, Buddha, and the Bodhisattvas.

舞狮向寺里的天后圣母，观世音和诸尊佛菩萨像前礼拜及拜年。

The lions are very friendly and close to the public, let people touch and interact with them.

舞狮团很友善亲民，走入人群，让大众触摸，与大众互动起来！

I feel a little helpless, this lion dance is squeezed to dance fast.

From the first day to 15^th day of Lunar New Year, the Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur held many new spring events and activities. To friends who living in Kuala Lumpur can pay a visit to enjoy and experience the Lunar New Year, at the same time pray for good luck. Wishing you all the best in New Year.

我感到有点无奈，这舞狮被挤到快舞不起来了！

年初一到十五元宵节，吉隆坡天后宫举办了各种新春活动，居住吉隆坡一带的朋友们，可以去感受那里的新年气氛，或是一家大小，前来为来年祈福好运。

祝福你们新年一切满愿！
