Sri Aruloli Thirumurugan

Sri Aruloli Thirumurugan Hindu Temple
@
Penang Hill Hindu Temple

One of the oldest Hindu temples in Penang. Can you believe this temple started off in the 1800s as a small sanctuary? I am happy to see that it is being expanded and improved over the years. The carvings of deities are amazing. Rich bold colors were used. Devotional statues are beautiful as well. 

This temple is most welcoming. No gates. The only 2 rules are to take off one’s shoes when entering the inside of the temple and no photography inside the temple. 























 

Air Itam ~ Food & Market

An old time favorite. The 2 famous sisters are home now. Their granddaughter is manning the curry mee stall.

We also had Duck rice. Wanted to eat the Prawn Mee but finished selling by 10AM!

Air Itam is a haven for stall food and its market is a super bustling one. Only challenge is walking with the cars and motorbikes flying left and right.
