GEORGE TOWN: The Kek Lok Si Temple in Ayer Itam is once again brightly lit up with colourful lights to keep up with the Chinese New Year tradition.

The tens of thousands of LED lights and traditional Chinese lanterns now illuminate the 130-year-old monastery all the way up to the 33.6m-tall Kuan Yin statue and pavilion.
