Since it was the first anniversary, the Penang State Government had hold a celebration for this special day. Few areas within Georgetown have been opened to the public for visitation in the evening which normally close at the evening, and there was many cultural presentation as well.
In fact, the activities was started at the morning, due to my working hour, I only attended the activities at the evening which was started at 6:30 PM.
After I parked my car near the Esplanade at 5:30 PM, I headed to my first destination, the Han Jiang Association or known as Teo Chew Association.
As I passed by a temple, I took a few photos of it.
The temple that I walked pass as I heading to Han Jiang Association
A statue located at the temple, there're two of them. It looks like a Cinnamon Roll to me :P
A dragon sculpture besides the pillar
The shop of a sign board maker
Not far from the Han Jiang Association, I came to an Indian temple, as I heard that it was the first Indian temple in Georgetown.
The first Indian temple in Georgetown, is it true?
The friendly Indian uncle sat at the temple doorstep allowed me to take a photo of him
When I reached the Han Jiang Association, the Chinese cultural show was not yet started, so I just went into the compound of the Han Jiang Association to look around.
The uncle was making a basket by using cane, it's a traditional craftsmanship, not many people are familiar with this craftsmanship anymore
The uncle is patiently weaving the basket cane by cane
Many cane made products in the background
