Penang Lantern Festival is held in conjunction with the 16th Penang International Floral Festival in
Penang Botanical Garden. Since I can't put all these photos into one post (too many), so I separated them into different post.
First of all, when I enter Penang Botanical Garden, this naughty Monkey silk lantern greet me.. He was playing around and hanging himself high up on one of the tree branches. Well, those who frequent Botanical Garden will know Botanical Garden is famous for the
monkeys .. I mean the living monkeys, who can and will grab food from your hands, so watch out !!
Lovely gigantic Bees silk lantern. The loving couple. Looks like "someone" leh.. so sweet.. *ahem*
More monkeys welcoming the visitors..
The
insects bugs are playing around happily in the garden.
Huge colourful rafflesia silk lantern.
Hibiscus, Butterfly, Rafflesia & Flamingoes Lantern.
Seeing all these flamingoes reminds me of the
flamingoes I saw not long ago in Taiping Zoo.
Carcar asked me previously :"why are the birds called "FLAMINGO"? My answer is "when they are
flamed, they will
go away loh..
flame & go, that's why the name
flamingo come about, hahahhaha..... Don't flame me for saying that :P
I bet the place will be very beautiful & scenic at night time when all the lanterns are lightened up. Might be I will go there on of these nights to have a peep :)
