Malaysia is getting ready to celebrate Deepavali, one of the most significant and widely embraced festivals in the country. What started as a Hindu celebration has now become a public holiday cherished by people of all backgrounds. The festival is a spectacle of lights, with fireworks and crackers illuminating the skies.
Malaysians celebrate Deepavali with traditional customs and festivities that bring everyone together. This year, Deepavali falls on November 12, 2023, with preparations beginning about a week in advance.
Hindu households will undergo a thorough cleaning, and diyas, the traditional oil lamps, will adorn every corner, symbolizing the triumph of light over darkness. The celebrations will be widespread, with grand festivities taking place in Little India Brickfields in Kuala Lumpur, at every Hindu temple, and at the revered Batu Caves in Selangor. Deepavali is a time for Malaysians to come together and celebrate the spirit of unity, light, and joy. If you plan to visit the city during the celebrations, consider opting for a stay in modern serviced apartments in Bangsar, such as the preferred Domitys Bangsar Kuala Lumpur.
