Went to the Buddhist temple at Bencoolen Street on Saturday. It's sort of customary for people to visit temples to give thanks at the end of the lunar year.
星期六去了在明古连街的观音堂佛祖庙。农历新年之前去寺庙答谢算是习俗。
🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。

I thought some places of visit were allowed to opened. So people were just doing the "communication" from outside.
但是，寺庙没开。我本来听说宗教场所被允许打开。那人们只能在外面做“沟通”。
I went closer to find out they decided they close on weekends. I guess the crowd would be difficult to manage.
我上前去，发现他们决定在周末关闭。我想周末的人潮可能比较难应付。
The Indian temple nearby were closed too.
附近印度寺庙也没开。
I just decided to make this picture a black and white one. The statues all around the temple is some wonder of art. Maybe I'll use this photo for a photo contest.
我决定把这张照片编辑成黑白。寺庙的雕像也算是艺术。可能用这张照片来提交摄影比赛。
Nearby, this open area usually have some kind of bazaar market during the period leading to the Chinese New Year but not this year. We all know why.
附近这放地往年在农历新年之前有摆市集但没有。大家也该知道这是为什么。
I think that sort of benefitted the shops nearby.
我猜附近的店铺受益了。
Someone decided to extend the stall outside Fu Lu Shou Complex to sell fruits and there was good human traffic there.
有人决定将在福禄寿大厦外的摊位扩展卖水果而那里人潮也真不错。
