Postcard from Malaysia.



LORD MURUGAN STATUE 
THE STATUTE, WHICH IS 42.7 METERS HIGH (140FT), IS THE TALLEST STATUE IN MALAYSIA, AND SECOND HINDU DEITY IN THE WORLD, TRAILING ONLY THE KAILASHNATH MAHADEY STATUE IN NEPAL
The construction of the statue required the skilled work of 15 sculptors form India. They carried out the construction for three years. The Lord Murugan statute was unveiled in January 2006 during the Thaipusam festival.
Lord Murugan’s statue is positioned in one of the most impressive part of Malaysia, the Batu Caves. They represent a limestone hill made up of a series of caves and cave temples
Thank you Bei Hao for the magnificent statue card.
