Impressions from the Batu Caves, Malaysia
Hello Steemians,
In this post, I will share pictures of the Batu Caves in Malaysia, which I visited back in 2009.
I know that was a long time ago, but I do want to share these pictures with you. What good are they living in my hard drive, if nobody else sees them?
Anyway, the Batu Caves is one of the most popular Hindu shrines outside India (1). They are dedicated to Lord Murugan, the god of war.
Being around 400 million years old, they used to be occupied by Orang Asli, the indigenous people of Malaysia.
Consecration started in 1890, when an Indian trader, K. Thamboosamy Pillai, installed the statue of Lord Murugan. After that, since 1892, a yearly festival has been celebrated here.
And that's the end of this post. I hope you liked it, and that you will follow me to my next one.
Have a good day, and we'll speak again soon!
