What to expect on the 6th Day, October 20th

Let’s start by hoping for some blue sky for a little contrast!

Saturday, October 20th is the 6th day of the Nine Emperor Gods Festival. In Ampang at 2pm, the mediums will invite the gods to the temple to help perform the ritual ceremony of feeding the armies of the generals that are protecting the camp. Buckets of food are prepared and presented, while hundreds of devotees watch over the proceedings. Then Kow Ong Yah will inspect the grounds, starting with the 4 corners. He will then make his rounds through the dormitories to the joy of the women staying there.

Here are a few photos from a couple of years ago, when I was there.

And here are two photos that I found while looking for these of Day 6. Because they brought a smile to my heart, I wanted to share.
