Trip Report by Cameron McMillan September 2000
Visited Penang last year
and found the people fantastic, very helpful and most all spoke perfect
English. I enjoyed the Hindu Temples very much especially in the evening.
So atmospheric when there is a thunderstorm and the pujaree is doing
sermon and the smell of incense flowing thru the air. I especially enjoyed
the Hindu temple to Mother Earth and Ganesha (always a favourite of
mine-house named in respect of him). I visited the large temple east
of Penang Street the grounds are large and beautiful. Of all of the
religions in the world I find Hinduism very humbling and most friendly
to other religious followers. Such as nice all round cosy feeling created
by this. |
