My family went to Seck Kia Eenh Temple in Melaka on Wesak evening. These are the scenes that we saw. It was a very spritual evening for devotees.
In the first photo, a chanting was held in front of the white bell-like structure, called stupa. In the stupa, is where the relics of Buddha is kept. After the chanting, a closing ceremony for this year's Wesak celebration was held. The crowd gathered at the flag posts to sing the Buddhist anthem, 'In Unity We Stand', Melaka state song, 'Melaka Maju Jaya' and lastly our national anthem, 'Negaraku'.
